Minnesota Woman Rescues Two Owls From Cars
Annabell Whelan, a recent biology graduate, rescued two injured owls in northern Minnesota within a single day. The first, a great gray owl, was found on the ground and transported to Wildwoods wildlife rehabilitation center before being transferred to the University of Minnesota Raptor Center. Hours later, Whelan rescued a snowy owl, named Nowl, from a car grille and provided overnight care before delivering it to Wildwoods. Both owls are receiving treatment for their injuries at the Raptor Center. Wildwoods advises that those who encounter injured wildlife should call for professional help and provide a quiet, safe space until professionals arrive.
