REPORT: Tyre's Golden owls handed over to nature reserve

Workers in Hiram Hospital were surprised to spot on Thursday four golden owls in the hospital’s garden in Tyre, noting that this kind of bird is uncommon to the country’s wildlife.           

On Friday, LBCI followed up on the handover process which was held between the employees of the Hiram Hospital and others of a nature reserve located in the region.                                   

The golden owl, also known as Tyto alba, is characterized with far vision, particularly in low light, and is dubbed “cleaner of the environment” and “farmer-friendly” since this bird feeds on rats and insects.         

According to some experts, the aforementioned species are coming to Lebanon due to climate change since this phenomenon has a significant direct effect on animals.
