Free Flaco

[DeusxMac]

“For two weeks, an owl that escaped from New York’s Central Park Zoo has flown from treetop to treetop, eluding capture and amassing legions of fans worried about its ability to survive alone in the big city.

Would Flaco, a majestic Eurasian eagle-owl, go hungry because he hadn’t developed an ability to hunt while in captivity?

With a collective sigh of relief, the answer was a resounding no: It appears Flaco has regained his killer instincts and is becoming an old hand at swooping down from his lofty perch to feed on the park’s bounty of rats.”

Leave him out there! And get more Eurasian Eagle-owls...

Send him over to Brooklyn where my daughter lives. He won’t go hungry there.

The zoo has given up any recapture attempts. Flacco is on his own - rats beware.

Seriously, they should get more and set them loose all over NYC.

Unfortunately, NYC is awash is rat poison and thus in poisoned rats. When they are sick and dying, they are easier to catch. I hope Flaco can avoid eatingthe ones that could kill him.

this! I believe that was one of the original reasons given for why they wanted him back in captivity.

Maybe Flaco will return on his own..... when he realizes how good he had it. Or maybe he'll put on a disguise and hang out at the Bronx Zoo for awhile.
