Title: Dead juvenile Burrowing Owl hung up on barbed wire<\/p>\n

Location: Box Elder County, Utah<\/p>\n

Date: 6\/24\/2015<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

This fence is on the property of the Golden Spike National Monument so after I got home I called them and told them where the owl was and the person I spoke to said they would dispatch someone to retrieve the owl\u2019s body.<\/p>\n

I also spoke to them about putting flags, tags or even strips of tape to help the owls see the fence line. Last evening it occurred to me that the flags or tags would be an excellent action to take because that same area has Greater Sage-Grouse, Chukars, Gray Partridges and possibly Sharp-tailed Grouse whose lives could also be saved by the flags on the fences. I\u2019m not sure how to go about it but I\u2019d like to work on getting this done to protect the birds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
