Escaped Zoo Owl Is Successfully Hunting In New York's Central Park

A New York City owl has learned to hunt on his own after escaping from the Central Park Zoo.
Flaco, a 13-year-old Eurasian eagle-owl, flew the coop on Feb. 2 after an unidentified person vandalized his enclosure, cutting the mesh that had kept the bird from being able to fly away. The zoo mobilized to try to recapture Flaco, fearing that he wouldn’t be able to survive on his own. Born in captivity, the owl had never learned to hunt, prompting worries that he would simply starve to death.
