    Hopefully he does okay. Owls are very vulnerable to cars when they feed on road kill at night. I hope he does well.

      Another cause for concern is getting caught on barbed wire or electrocuted.

      In general, Owls are not that bright (albeit not “dumb”) particularly when it comes to avoiding hazards, relative to other birds. Which is kind of funny since they’re seen as a symbol for wisdom in multiple cultures all over the world.

      Luckily all cars besides Park staff are banned in Central Park, and there's enough rats there to keep him fed for a very long time.
