Does a owl have any predators?
Owls do have various predators. Their predators vary depending on the region and size of the owl species. Common natural predators of owls include larger bird raptors like hawks and eagles, as well as mammalian predators such as foxes, martens, raccoons, wild cats, wolves, mountain lions and great horned owls. In some environments, they may also fall prey to larger birds like golden eagles or even some reptiles such as the alligator snapping turtle. Other potential threats to owls can include larger avian species like crows, gulls or even ravens that sometimes engage in mobbing behaviors. Additionally, certain species of snakes pose the danger of preying on owl hatchlings in the nest.
