Owls enjoying new aviary at wildlife park

The Curraghs Wildlife Park has unveiled its new Barn Owl Aviary, which resident Pepsi has already moved into. 

The park teamed up with Manx Wildlife Trust in a project which will provide funding for boxes, monitoring and education to help maintain the population.

Farmland birds recovery officer Robert Fisher says Barn Owls are endangered on the Island because of its prey - pest rodents - are often poisoned.
