The Suffolk Owl Sanctuary is a refuge for owls in Eastern England. While they have received various injured animals, they have never been brought an obese owl before. One day, a member of the public found a small owl in a hedge that was soaking wet and appeared to be struggling. The concerned individual brought it into a local sanctuary, and after a thorough check-up, they found out that it was not injured at all. The sanctuary staff was surprised to find out that the little owl was unable to fly, not because of an injury, but because it was too fat.
