Owls can't always successfully defend themselves from other animals, particularly their prey. Great horned owls, for example, are often found either dead or injured as a result of would-be prey like skunks and porcupines fighting back.eet and Beak. Like other birds in the raptor group, owls of all species use their beaks and talons to defend themselves. An owl's feet are equipped with particularly long, sharp and curved claws, which he can dig into an adversary and use like hooks to tear and rip at flesh.
Eggs are brooded by the female with hatching taking place approximately 4 weeks later. Young owls fledge four to five weeks after hatching. These owls have few predators, but young, unwary owls may be taken by cats. The most significant predator of barred owls is the great horned owl. The barred owl has been known to live up to 10 years in the wild and 23 years in captivity.
