Snow Print of Owl Capturing Rabbit

This was submitted by Holsti97 to summitpost back in 2006. He wrote:

“Follow the rabbit tracks. BAM! The tracks suddenly end where the wing prints of an owl start. This picture was taken by a friend of a friend who teaches in Bethel, Alaska. Photo by Susan Barstow.”

Apparently Susan is not the only person to have been lucky enough to encounter such a thing with a camera in her hand. Check out this one, for example – it was found in Chicago earlier this year. Indeed, another abrupt end for one critter in the talons of a bird of prey.
