If you find an injured owl:
Note your exact location so the owl can be released back where it came from. Contact a licensed wildlife rehabilitation specialist to get correct advice and immediate assistance.
Minimize stress for the owl. If you can catch it, toss a towel or sweater over it and get it in a cardboard box or pet carrier. It should have room to be comfortable but not so much it can panic and injure itself. If you can’t catch it, keep people and animals away until help can come.
Do not give food or water! If you feed them the wrong thing or give them water improperly, you can accidentally kill them. It can also cause problems if they require anesthesia once help arrives, complicating procedures and costing valuable time.
If it is a baby owl, and it looks safe and uninjured, leave it be. Time on the ground is part of their growing up. They can fly to some extent and climb trees. If animals or people are nearby, put it up on a branch so it’s safe. If it’s injured, follow the above advice.

I know very little about the artist, just that I love this stuff. His main site seems to be down at the moment, but at least there's an Instagram stream: https://www.instagram.com/animalsinthings/
For those who still visit the evil empire, there's r/HybridAnimals for more of this art. Does such a community exist in the Lemmysphere? I'm not sure, but if not, it sure wouldn't hurt if someone wanted to start it up!
Gorilegg is my current mood.
Jenga-corgi is funniest.
Frog-tongue is a nope. 😧
I want to see it with the frog's tongue sticking out
I will not let my fears control me!

Hey, I like the 12-step angle! Or is it more of a Stuart Smalley thing, haha.
Lol I'm good with either of those.
I love its little bum sticking out the other side. And yeah, nope on the tongue frog
Agreed. Was not my favorite until I saw the toosh.
Is a pinneappowl a swinger?

Pineappowl is highly relatable check out that expression me when pineapple holy shit 🍍 🦉

How so?
"artist"
Heck yeah!
I've seen a lot of these 'hybrid animal' pieces, and his is easily some of the best. Not just due to his obvious technical skills, but I find he has a gift for picking some pretty awesome mashup subjects. Each one also doubles as a sort of a hilarious zinger to me, especially the "Corcenga" piece. XD
Anyway yeah, I probably have a few dozen hours in to GIMP, and there's no way I could produce stuff as smooth as this excellent artist did.
I think they were implying that this was AI instead of image merging (Photoshop/Gimp).
If you'd followed by checking his stream, showing him posing with his pieces, then that might have helped such understandings. In any case, I suspect that the two most likely likelihoods are this:
he's a huge idiot for putting fake work out there with his own name and image.
he actually DID produce this stuff, which one might discover by following his art process
Oh, I don't personally think that this was AI generated, I just wanted to give further clarification.
Agree that those that use AI for images and then try to pose as the auther are huge idiots, glad this one isn't 😅
