Next up is the Northern Spotted Owl. This lovely creature is one of Canada's most endangered species, with only a small portion of habitat left in British Columbia. B.C. is currently aggressively trying to reintroduce the Northern Spotted, in part by eliminating the invasive species pushing it out-

Burrowing owls (Athene cunicularia) are another species at great risk in Canada. One of the smallest species of owls, they're primarily terrestrial, live in repurposed burrows of other species, and are active both by day and night. Active in prairie, savannah and grassland, burrowing owls-

-let me know! First up: the barn owl.

Wait, what?

That's right! Barn owls (Tyto alba), some of the most culturally recognizable owls, are actually endangered in Canada as well as 10 north and north-eastern states, and a species of special concern in others. This means that the species is at risk-

Being raised/in school with Wab Kinee as kind of an "Indigenous/Social Studies Bill Nye" figure means that every time someone brings him up this is my mental picture:

gonna take this opportunity to shout out Within Temptation who does that very rare thing of "stays the fuck out of it if they're not sure" and "is incredibly based about things they are certain about". they're currently on a 30 year streak of this

The editor has been digging herself into a deeper and deeper racist hole so I'm gonna name and shame: this is Graveside Press + she's now trying to claim that Indigenous beliefs are... Folklore instead of mythology, I think? This is all happening on Threads.
