If you have ever seen a snowy owl, you will know why this is heart breaking. Their numbers are really dropping.
Some of it is directly our fault. Powerlines and poisoned rodents kill too many.
Some of their trouble is indirectly our fault. Global warming effects their ability to survive. The food they need, the lemmings are in trouble because of global warming. The lemming habitat is messed up and their numbers are dropping. Snowy owls are finding it hard to find food.

No matter how you look at it, it is our fault. There are things we can do to prevent climate change, but we really are not doing them.
We could stop using poison on rodents and save many animal lives. Birds and mammals both feed on rodents,
We cause a lot of deaths with our poisons.
We could make powerlines safer for birds.
We could work to reverse climate change.
We need to do this soon, or it will be too late for the snowy owl.
