One of the most unique owl species lives in the Arctic. These birds are in serious decline with currently listed as vulnerable by the IUCN. There are an estimated 28,000 breeding pairs left, which could be as low as 7,000 breeding pairs. They for sure are an animal species we need to keep our eyes on.  Patreon: Please considering supporting us at Patreon HERE.
