Snowy owl

Following a collision with a car, our snowy owl was treated at the Birds of Prey Clinic of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Montreal. She had serious injuries that led to the amputation of her left wing. Following her recovery, she arrived at the Bioparc for a well-deserved retirement.

If you find a bird of prey that appears injured or in distress, it is your duty to inform the wildlife protection officers of the Ministère de la Forêt, de la Faune et des Parcs (MFFP). They are among the animals that must be declared. You must contact the toll-free number 1-877-346-6763 or outside office hours, SOS Poaching, centralesos@mffp.gouv.qc.ca / 1 800 463-2191 in order to transport the bird.
