Earlier his week, the Malta Ranger Unit handed over a Scops Owl over to a government vet after it was found very unwell.
The rangers were alerted to the injured bird by a member of the public, and acted swiftly to rescue the owl.
The owl is set to undergo rehabilitation with BirdLife Malta. An x-ray showed that there were no shotgun injuries.
‘We wish to thank the person who found the owl and the several NGOs that assisted us on this case’, wrote Malta Ranger Unit.
