The Great-Horned Owl can be found all across the United States and everywhere else in North America. Like the Barn Owl, the Great-Horned Owl is non-migratory and can be found in their range year-round. They are one of the most common owl species in North America. They make a distinct hooting noise that will sound familiar to most.

Great-Horned Owls are large and will often take down other large raptors as prey. Their massive talons can apply 28 pounds of pressure to whatever they have grabbed ahold of, making an escape by their prey unlikely. They use their amazing strength to break the spines of their prey. less
