Baby in the house.

The many young Great Horned Owls that are receiving care at Dayton Valley Wildlife Reststop are growing fast.  Great Horned Owls have a sturdy digestive system. They sometimes digest their prey whole and later regurgitate pellets that contain unwanted parts.

Beautiful Golden Eagle from the Eureka area is doing very well after a truck windshield strike.

A baby jackrabbit will receive TLC while at DVWR. Cornered by a dog, the baby was retrieved and arrived as a 5 day old leveret, the name for a baby jackrabbit. Even though they are called jackrabbits, the baby is a hare, differing from rabbits with larger size, longer ears and longer hind legs.

In case you wanted to know, a group of rabbits are called a “fluffle.” Individual baby bunnies are called “kits.”There are lots of kits here.
