Rescuers at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary in Kanab, Utah, are familiar with unusual cases, but nothing prepared them for a great horned owl covered in hardened concrete. The juvenile owl, weighing just two pounds, had somehow fallen into a concrete mixer earlier this month, before being spotted by locals and brought to Best Friends’ Wild Friends rehabilitation center. When staff got a closer look, they realized the extent of the problem: roughly a quarter of the bird’s body had been sealed beneath dried concrete.
