| Until 13 years ago, little if any research had been done on flammulated owls; just over a century ago the species was unknown to science. Given the high overall ER, this finding suggests marked differences in species susceptibility to the virus, with species falling into one of three groups (for scientific names see Table 1): death rates >90% (Snowy Owl, Great Gray Owl, Northern Hawk Owl, Boreal Owl, and Northern Saw-whet Owl), death rates <20% (Long-eared Owl, Short-eared Owl, Great Horned Owl, Flammulated Owl, and Northern Pygmy Owl), and death rates = 0% (Barn Owl, Burrowing Owl, and Eastern Screech Owl). The sale not only includes the harvesting of Douglas-firs, but it also brings prescribed burning into the understory that will enhance ponderosa pine and aspen, and create savannah-like stands for specialized species like the flammulated owl. |
