You can not keep a pueo. Pueos like all owls can be killed by eating rats and mice that have been poisoned. We studied the pueo. But the pueos are diurnal, they hunt during the day. At night maybe you can see a barn owl hunting for rats or mice and catching them.
Owls are really interesting.
The pueo mothers make their cute nests on the ground. When the pueo eggs hatch the mother pueos teach their owlets to hunt, fly and maybe hide. Owls are birds of prey, like eagles. It is still important to take care of them though. The pueos faces are round and the barn owls face is shaped like a heart.
