Why it matters
The Giant Scops-owl (*Otus gurneyi*) is one of the rarest owls in the world, endemic to the Philippine islands of Mindanao and Basilan. It is distinguished from other scops-owls by its noticeably larger size and its unique, rounded wings and tail, which are highly specialized for maneuvering through the dense lowland forests it calls home.
