Saving the Spotted Owl: Zalea’s Story

Saving the Spotted Owl: Zalea’s Story

An endearing true story of an owl chick’s rescue. When Zalea, a three-week-old northern spotted owl, fell from her tree, her parents couldn’t carry her back to their nest. That meant Zalea, a member of a threatened species, would be easier for predators to find. But Zalea got lucky. Wildlife biologists found her and brought her to their breeding center, where they could care for her until she could be released back into the wild. Though a long process, the biologists are committed to saving the species — one owl at a time! This hopeful and engaging story is sure to melt hearts and raise awareness about this inspiring work.
