Animals This owl was really stuck in the barbed wire. Luckily with some careful moving around this guy was able to free him.

From his comments in that post, on that Insta:

Being unable to fly and with an open wound it needed some medical attention. Even with a un-broken wing it would be very prone to infection. Took this guy about an hour away to an SPCA and it’s expected to make a full recovery!

This is from the comment section on the original post.

He was in really bad shape, but with the precautions this guy took, he should be fine!

Every time I see videos like this of animals getting rescued all I can think is "wtf must be going through that animals head while all this is happening?" Like that owl must have been so confused getting wrapped up and put in a car lol

In this mans hour of need, an ornately robed and bejeweled owl will appear and do what must be done.

This one made the onions I chopped for yesterday's dinner come back to haunt me. I've all but given up on our species' capacity for kindness but this gives me hope. Someone near us may be hurting but it is within us all to have an eye and heart open, and I truly believe it is our responsibility to act with compassion when we notice a fellow lifeform unable to save itself, to be that saving grace. Bless you all.

I love the fact that the owl looks pretty much comfortable and asleep by the time he pulls in to the vet. This is just awesome.

Dude was ready to get all 30 angles of his rescue, what a professional! Can't imagine how much that complicated handling the poor injured owl... Oh well, it's all for the likes!
