II. Reading 8% In the movie Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Hedwig, the magical owl makes a fantastic pet for Harry. Although Hedwig lives in a bird cage in Harry’s room, real owls do not make good pets because they need room to take flight and hunt for food. A male snowy owl like Hedwig would fly for miles to hunt lemmings(旅鼠) and catch ducks in mid-air.
There are 19 species of owls in North America, and more than 150 species world-wide. Many of them are in decline and face possible extinction(灭绝) due to human activities and city development. The Nature Conservancy hopes that people who see the lovely owls in the movie will help keep them wild by preserving their rapidly disappearing habitats.
Wherever you find owls, do not disturb their nests or young to get a better look. Shaking trees that house owls, shining bright lights on baby owls, or imitating owl calls can interrupt normal hunting patterns and chick rearing(育儿).
