This Bird Of Prey Tries To Intimidate A Defenseless Family Cat By Showing How Big It Is

Owls are majestic creatures. They’re one of the most adorable and mysterious birds out there. However, they are not as innocent as they may look sometimes. After all, owls are called birds of prey for a reason. Being good hunters, these birds live on a diet of various creatures such as insects, mice, rats, hares, and some of them can even hunt fish. Owls are one of the most silent birds of prey with excellent night vision and hearing, so many poor little creatures out there stand no chance against these predators. If that’s not scary enough for you, these animals are known to sometimes attack humans. For instance, a great horned owl, whose talons have a clutching force of 500 psi (similar to the bite of a large guard dog), repeatedly struck the scalp of a jogger in Salem, Oregon in 2015.

When we think of owls, we usually imagine them as adorable and extremely cute creatures

But they can get quite terrifying really fast. Just look at this angry little ball of fluff!!
