Chubby little owl becomes a social media sensation in China

Owls are birds that attract a lot of attention. Their big eyes, their friendly shape and the belief that they bring good luck make them well received by everyone. And if, furthermore, the animal is a young animal with a chubby and funny appearance, then its admiration shoots up to viral proportions.

These days, social networks and Chinese media talk about this friendly baby eagle owl. The first specimen to survive breeding without its parents, that is, fed and raised by the staff of the Shanghai Zoo. Something that had never been achieved until now.

A few weeks ago, another eagle owl captured the attention of half the world. It was Flacco, a raptor who escaped from the Manhattan Zoo and now lives at ease on the streets of the Big Apple, being the target of hundreds of observers who look for him with their binoculars and cameras in the city of skyscrapers. .
