Almost certainly the best thing I wa ever told about owls was when I met an owl handler and he told me that the wild owls in the sanctuary where he worked worried about the tame show owls there and sometimes stopped by to leave them shrews and mice as presents.
You see your brain is bigger than that of an owl but still you didn't even look up established fakt about intelligence and rather made a stupid comment that is making the same argument as the nazis did back then.
godwins law strikes again, end of thread lol
Eh? The Nazis had opinions on owls?
I'm just saying they are not smart. The idea of the wise owl is a myth they have the smallest brain to body size of any bird. There's more going on in the head of a pigeon
The nazis financed research that should show that white people have bigger brains and therefore are more intelligent.
Yes that's correct brain size is not a useful measurement to detect intelligence between humans but between different species it's a good estimate.
Owls do not have very big brains, and what they have is almost entirely given over to optical and audio processing. This is all very easily verified.
