Newton and Dakota are Great Horned Owls that have imprinted on humans. Every year we receive several birds that have been kept in captivity during the critical imprint stage when they should be forging connections with their own species. We will never be able to release Newton and Dakota because they will approach people when hungry. Imagine one landing on your shoulder to share your ice cream! Also, because they do not relate to other Great Horned Owls, they would probably never find mates. Dakota is eleven years old and Newton is two. They can live to about 35 years in captivity.
