Beak

Beak is a male Great Horned Owl whose story is one of intervention and imprinting. As a young owlet, he was found in someone's dog's mouth. The finders tried to raise him until they identified his species and brought him in for rehabilitation and release.

Unfortunately, Beak was too accustomed to human interaction and kept returning to the center begging for food. Because he cannot survive in the wild, he became a spectacular and vital part of our educational team.

Although he looks fierce, Beak has a softer side and has successfully fostered 7 great horned owlets over the years.
