Why single motherhood is bad for owlets.

Dad has been gone missing for about 4 days. Survival of the fittest or maybe largest is quiet sad to watch.

[@Ahmad57422]

Being the smallest or youngest sibling is like a bad omen for animals 😢😢

[@jayhouse3149]

Nature is cruel indeed but so is starving!

[@monickalynn4365]

Small fry’ mommy doing her best’ but single parent is tuff ‘

[@eliaswrenn1949]

Come on now…. Share the chick with your brothers!😂😂

[@Jin88866]

He could've eaten the egg instead of his little brother...

[@pharoahcaraboo9610]

owlets recognize that warm and fluffy=food, not so much an egg sadly.

[@eizol568]

The smallest are always a backup for the largest…natures way.

[@vern0018]

Is the little one already dead when the bigger one kept going at him.

[@eliaswrenn1949]

The egg shell is a bit bland and he ran out of Frank’s Red Hot.😂

Survival of the fittest + instinct.

お母さんは、何処へ行ったの１人を残して全員食べられます

[@SONORSQ2guy]

Great video love it 👍

[@dannive594]

No rescue?

[@TinyBewPuppy]

This ALWAYS happens with owls...even if they are not starving. If there is one much older and one young enough, the small one will get eaten. It happens on almost every owl nest.

[@kips8156]

There’s no recusing it. That will only scare the mom off. Like the last person said, this happens a lot. When there are four owlets in a nest and food isn’t plentiful, being the fourth owlet is a death sentence for you. These babies are starving, would you really let that baby starve to death? What’s happening to that chick is basically mercy from a slow agonizing death that they’re all experiencing. It’s sad but it’s what happens in nature. When the other chicks die mom will feed them to the surviving chick, if there was one.
