Chaco Owl is a medium-sized nocturnal owl that lives in dry forests and savannas of South America. It hunts small animals and is well camouflaged thanks to its gray-brown coloration.
Chaco Owl differs from other owls by its gray coloration and love for the dry Chaco regions. It is important for nature because it catches many rodents and helps maintain balance in forests and savannas.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
