I know I shouldn't be laughing at this, but this is possibly the best real-life headline ever: Drunk Owl Taken In By Police

German police recently found a drunk owl out in public and took in the animal, saying it would be released once it has sobered up.

A spokesman for the Pforzheim police reported to Spiegel Online that "a woman walking her dog alerted the police after seeing the bird sitting by the side of the road oblivious to passing traffic." When police found the brown owl, it was staggering around with drooping eyelids. As further evidence of the owl's drunkenness, two small bottles of Schnapps were found near the bird.


ahahahahahahahahahahahahaha forever

...What even. Is it even illegal for wild animals to get drunk? Are they aware that they have to follow our laws, and that they'll be arrested if they don't?

And is it possible that the owl was diseased, and there had been a drunk person sitting next to it? Because that seems more likely to me.

But still. Definitely the funniest thing I've read all day.

German, huh? Poor thing obviously never heard the "if you can't see if your liver can't either" phrase they have regarding alcohol...

But seriously, that is legit XD Reminds me of the drunk squirrel too.
