Bubo Bubo: China’s Weirdest Owl

Bubo Bubo is often the term used to refer to the Eagle Owl, the same owl that brought Malfoy’s mail in Harry Potter and was printed on China’s stamps in 1995. However this endangered Bubo Bubo below doesn’t look like your normal Eagle Owl.

A farmer displays a Northern Eagle Owl ( Bubo bubo), an endangered bird under the State’s second-grade protection facing extinction in Zaozhuang, East China’s Shandong Province.

    It’s not owl, nor eagle. It needs it’s own species sub-category!
    Those eye’s scare the shit out of me!

    genetic mutation indeed! hopefully genetic drift occurs and every owl turns out like that bad ass.
