Owl Tangled In Soccer Net Cut Free

A kindhearted family put themselves in a risky situation to rescue an aggressive owl that had become trapped in a soccer net. Fearful of the owl’s sharp claws and beak, Dave Larson approached with caution when he discovered the bird in his family’s soccer goal, in Oak Creek, Wisconsin. In the dramatic footage, the distressed owl can be seen tangled in the netting while Dave slowly but surely attempts to cut the bird free. During the proceedings, Dave’s wife, Sue, filmed the rescue, which saw the startled bird snap at Dave on numerous occasions, stretching out its claws every time he got close. Fortunately, the family were able to free the distressed bird, with their son Travis sharing the clip online where they were showered with praise for assisting the animal on September 27.
