From WildCareOklahoma
Meet WildCareOklahoma patient #24-3218, great horned owl. This is not a typical position for an owl. This one is being weighed. Taking and tracking patient weights is one of the most important protocols followed at WildCareOklahoma. Changes and trends in weight can indicate the patient is improving and moving toward release or that something may be wrong when weight is lost.
You may recognize this scale - it's the same kind used in pediatricians' offices!
If you can fit it on a baby scale, then it's gotta be a baby. It's not a baby and whatever else you feel like, perhaps an owl, why not, let's be a little ridiculous scale. We live in a civil society, people dont just stick whatever they find in places babies are supposed to go.
