WINNER: ELF OWL 47-27

The matchup many of you have been waiting for!

The Elf Owl is a sparrow sized owl of the Southwest US and Mexico and Baja. It loves to live in woodpecker holes in giant desert cacti. It has trademark white eyebrows, sure to get your attention. Don’t try to hold it though, when grabbed, it will play dead in an attempt to escape! These tiny owls are bug hunters, and love to eat scorpions, where they remove to stinger before swallowing them. Will this tiny owl be able to take on its challenger today?

The Powerful Owl is the largest of the Australian owls. It dominated the eastern coast forests where it eats a variety of medium sized marsupials like gliders and possums. The Powerful Owl is known for taking prey much larger in relation to its own size than almost any other raptor. It can also catch the largest bat, the Flying Fox. Will this giant defeat the tiny Elf?

    The penis owl is real and has cost the ACT government around $75k AUD a year to remove graffiti from it until they installed CCTV to prevent further vandalism.

    There’s also a giant butt plug statue in the suburb of Phillip in the ACT.

      I tried to find pics if the graffiti, but I found this article instead, which did describe the graffiti, but that didn’t sound very creative.

      The 75k it says was for all their art maintenance, the owl was about 3k, which seemed to surprise them as well.

      Do you have a link to the other statue? I just keep getting statues of Captain Phillip, the owl, or dong-like statues in other places.
