Owl Bites Dog Story

Friday's UK Telegraph reports on curious owl captured near Norwich, who apparently had acquired a taste for the local canine population:

A giant owl was captured yesterday after terrorising a tranquil village in a spate of attacks on dogs.

Over the past fortnight, at least five dogs have been repeatedly targeted by the European eagle owl - the biggest of all the owl species - in Saxlingham Nethergate, near Norwich.
