Owl attacks dog in Yorkshire (1 Viewer)

Currently, the state of North Carolina is having more than isolated incidences of Great Horned Owls and Barred Owl attacks on runners around the university. All the runners that have been attacked were either bald or wearing white hats. Strange.
 
A local escaped Eagle Owl in Farnborough attacked a police German Shepherd dog before it was recaptured. Years ago when "Goldie" the Golden eagle escaped from London Zoo there was footage of it trying to wax a Jack Russell (best thing to do with one), but the owner managed to rescue the dog.

Big predators take big prey.

Nothing unusal about Eagle Owls attacking and killing dogs they are not frighten of anything they are very aggressive and dangerous owls.My friends Eagle Owl flew at a horse rider in a park and the rider was knocked clean off the horse by his Eagle Owl.Luckerly the rider was alright just a bit shaken up.
