## Description

Product Description Also known as the tiger owl and the hoot owl, the great horned owl is a rather large member of the Bubo genus found throughout north and South America. In fact, the great horned owl has such a large population that it’s believed to be the most widely distributed owl in the Americas. The name hoot owl actually comes from the distinctive and famous hooting sound the great horned owl makes. Learn more interesting facts about the great horned owl with this scientifically accurate and realistic model! Measuring 5.5 inches wide and 2 inches tall, this roughly the size of a soda can on its side. Great horned owls are usually dark brown with varying shades of brown and tan with white accents. The great horned owl was and is an important symbol in many north and South American cultures. Some Native American tribes revered them and depicted them as symbols of strength and courage, while others believed them to be spirits of slain warriors. Members of the Zuni tribe even carried feathers of the great horned owl in their mouths while hunting or fighting, hoping to inherent the owl’s stealth. While we can’t guarantee you this figurine will make you an exceptional hunter or warrior, it will make a wonderful addition to your desk or nightstand! Set Contains: 1 x WOW Great Horned Owl Figurine

Review: Fair Warning: I'm just going to post this in all my animal items needing reviews unless one of them stands out for good or ill. My son has a built up a heck of a collection made up of Papo, Collecta, and Schleich, and Safari Ltd. My son and I, or he and his friend, have enjoyed playing with them, some for several years. As there is often a predator-prey battle, there can be some violent collisions, "clawing", "pouncing upon", etc. The Papo, Schleich, and Collecta are high quality replicas--all good build quality, durable, wonderfully detailed, a good weight and heft but not overly so, and they have held up without any issues (as mentioned, I'll note any exceptions in the individual review). The Safari Ltd. have suffered the most from the treatment, though the vast majority of those creatures have come through relatively unscathed. I'd say they're lesser quality i both durability and craftsmanship, but they are more than adequate for playing even somewhat roughly with. If it has thin legs, or other parts, it might be better to go the Schleich or Collecta, as they really are excellent build quality. But for creatures without a lot of appendages or thin parts (say, a beaver), the Safari are fine, if not quite as nicely made. This owl is one of the better Safari ones in terms of looks--it's really sharp and nicely detailed--one of my son's favorites
Review: GORGEOUS detailing! Because it's angled facing down, it's best to place it on a high shelf to fully appreciate the bird's face and underside. I can feel its protective power. "The owl is a sacred guardian of the afterlife, a keeper of souls transitioning from one plane of existence to another, and a guide between earth's creatures and underworld deities. The companion animal of the Goddess Athena, its symbol was used on Greek coins and it was, therefore, also associated with wealth, just as in India the owl is the sacred bird of Lakshmi (goddess of material prosperity). Owls possess wisdom and sacred knowledge; they are messengers of secrets, bringers of prophecy, and companions to medicine people. The Celts believed the owl to possess clairvoyance, stealth, and detachment and to be harbingers of change and initiation into sacred mysteries. In medieval Europe, owls were believed to be witches and wizards, shapeshifters in disguise. The owl's feathers are used to protect against evil spirits. Nailing an owl to the door of a house was considered a way to keep evil at bay." - portions paraphrased from Annie Zalezsak's Macrame Owl

GORGEOUS detailing! Because it's angled facing down, it's best to place it on a high shelf to fully appreciate the bird's face and underside. I can feel its protective power.

I'm obsessed with raptors, but these are the first such small replicas I've ever bought. I wasn't sure if I liked the color of them, as depicted in the photos, but I took a chance and bought two of these anyway... one to sit above my mailbox, and one to hang somewhere inside my house, with a piece of monofilament. As many other reviewers have pointed out, their coloring is much more subdued "in person" than in the photos. It's actually VERY "natural" looking... and not the least bit yellowish, or overly bright. I'm also extremely impressed with how surprisingly detailed the casting is. One reviewer mentioned getting a "round-eyed ooooohhh" from his kids when they first saw one. What mine elicited from me, was "WOW!" Now if only Safari would make a life-sized one, in the same pose!
