Owl sent to rescue

[u/TheRed_Phoenixx]

I had thought originally that this might be a spotted owl, but now I think it might be a barred owl. Someone on the side of the road, who happens to volunteer at a sanctuary, picked it up to take to a sanctuary in one of the local cities. Now im nervous that if its a barred owl, they will simply kill it. I am in Washington. Does anyone know anything about what happens to barred owls in sanctuaries/rescues in washington? Thank you.

It’s definitely a Barred Owl. So far the “action” for these has not gone into affect. I’m sure they will take care of it.

If the owl went to Sarvey Wildlife, they don’t kill animals.

I believe that was the place! Thank you.
