A fisherman caught the big one on his latest outing, only it wasn't the catch he was looking for. His lure hook had accidentally wrapped around the foot of an unsuspecting owl. Now he was left with a dangerous prospect: How do you remove a lure from an angry owl? Luckily, the owl trusted the fisherman enough to let him safely remove the hook.

For more owls in trouble, let's move on to South Carolina. A family was driving to dinner when they saw something move in front of their car and then they felt a bump. The next day they checked to see what they might have hit. It was actually an owl stuck in the car's bumper. They called a wildlife rescue expert who pulled the owl out safely and without injury.
