Can barn owls legally be bought and sold?
It is only legal to buy and sell barn owls that have been born and bred in captivity. Barn owls in the wild are fully protected by the law under the Wildlife & Countryside Act of 1981. To qualify for sale, barn owls must wear a ring on their leg which proves they have been born and bred in captivity.
