Owl Pellet

The owl pellet was very cool and interesting. Something that is really interesting is that the owl does one chew the prey, it actually swallows it whole then it it regurgitates an owl pellet. An owl pellet is ball covered with feathers then after it is dissected you can find the bones. Our assignment was to dissect the owl pellet an find the bones.We then had to identify the animal. Our animal was a shrewd, a rodent, and finally a mole.
