fearful owl
nesasio solomonensis latin

Thou ominous and fearful owl of death, Our nation's terror and their bloody scourge!

The Fearful Owl preys on phalangers, especially the Northern Common Cuscus.

Overhunting of the Northern Common Cuscus may be threatening the Fearful Owl, although habitat loss due to logging is the primary cause of population decline.

The Fearful Owl (Nesasio solomonensis) is a medium-sized owl endemic to the Solomon Islands and Bougainville in Papua New Guinea.
