Dinslaken in owl fever: Fire brigade saves animals from the fireplace!

Dinslaken, Deutschland - dinslaken (Germany) - In an impressive animal rescue operation, the Dinslaken fire brigade was alerted on Friday evening, January 13, 2024. A resident from the Oberlohberg district had heard strange noises from the fireplace of his family home and, after a look at the shaft, discovered two owls who apparently got into the wrong winter quarters. This situation required quick action, since the animals were obviously in an emergency, said Fireworld.at .

The emergency services moved in to free the forest owl with different tools. After around an hour of intensive and precise work, the fire brigade had successfully released the two birds from their predicament. The rescued animals were then handed over to a bird of prey sanctuary, where an employee took care of her. First of all, the birds were examined for any contaminants by soot or other fireplaces, since such deposits could have serious consequences for the flying assets of the owls. As freenet.de it was possible for the fire brigade and the animal welfare organization to secure, in good time to secure, so that hopefully they can be released into freedom soon.
