THE FOWL BEHAVIOR OF HARRY POTTER FANS


When the Harry Potter books were being released, numerous fans in the United Kingdom obtained pet owls. Now that the series has been over for awhile, many of these same fans in Britain have grown bored with their charges. As a result, a large number of pet owls have been "escaping" out of open windows.

British officials do give a hoot and are concerned that the sudden influx of large quantities of predatory birds can have detrimental effects on local ecosystems. The officials have pledged to enforce the laws against illegal owl-releasing, which include up to six months imprisonment and up to a $7,000 fine.

Abadoning a pet? "Don' wanna be, owl by myself!"
