Comment on Can someone fact check this
jordanlund@lemmy.world 16 hours agoFor starters, the average owl doesn’t weigh 16 pounds, that’s immediately proven false with a simple Google search. The smallest is an ounce, the largest just over 9 pounds.
On top of that, I can’t find any species that migrates from Europe to America…
So false from the jump.

There’s a few hundred that migrate from eastern NA to Europe and Africa, but no owls. Owls don’t really migrate at all. I did all the calculations in a different comment in this thread and the shitpost is so off it’s incredibly easy to disprove.

Yeah, I should have specified, any species of owl that migrates from Europe to America… Not sure what that image is on about. Everything seems wrong.
