If you find an injured owl:
Note your exact location so the owl can be released back where it came from. Contact a licensed wildlife rehabilitation specialist to get correct advice and immediate assistance.
Minimize stress for the owl. If you can catch it, toss a towel or sweater over it and get it in a cardboard box or pet carrier. It should have room to be comfortable but not so much it can panic and injure itself. If you can’t catch it, keep people and animals away until help can come.
Do not give food or water! If you feed them the wrong thing or give them water improperly, you can accidentally kill them. It can also cause problems if they require anesthesia once help arrives, complicating procedures and costing valuable time.
If it is a baby owl, and it looks safe and uninjured, leave it be. Time on the ground is part of their growing up. They can fly to some extent and climb trees. If animals or people are nearby, put it up on a branch so it’s safe. If it’s injured, follow the above advice.

Our biologists and volunteers need Apple iPhone devices to run specific field software that works with GPS. If you have an old iPhone 7 or newer just sitting around, we'd appreciate you making a tax deductible donation. Please make sure to erase/reset the phone (so we don't get any of your personal data) and mail to Owl Research Institute: PO Box 39, Charlo, MT 59824 THANK YOU!

With all the FOSS and privacy people here I can't tell if you're actually annoyed or not...
If so, you know better than to blindly click on links! 😉
If not, I do try to make it so you don't actually need to click any of my links, especially the Facebook ones because I know lots of people don't want to go there. I was ready to close my account before I started doing these posts. It's the only real way to get the info from all these rescues though, so now I use it more than ever.
I mainly add the links just to give credit for the photos or for people if they want to volunteer or donate.
Do you have a website or something i would like to read more. I personally dont have iphone but i will ask people around me
I couldn't find anything other than what I shared, so I sent them an email to see if they can share any info. If I hear back, I'll certainly share it!
I did get an update on what they are using the phones for. I'll make a new post on it. It's fairly interesting.
