lesser sooty owl
The lesser sooty owl (''Tyto multipunctata'') is a species of owl that lives in the wet tropics region of Australia.〔Hollands, David. 1991. "Birds of the Night". Reed Books〕 It is considered conspecific with the greater sooty owl, ''Tyto tenebricosa'', by some authors, including BirdLife International. The birds are then together commonly referred to as sooty owls. Like other birds of prey, the female () is bigger than the male (). The lesser sooty owl is part of the masked group of owls: an important part of the environment because they are efficient predators that keep down rodent populations. They feed mostly on animals like bandicoots and rodents such as rats, but occasionally eat arboreal animals like birds and squirrel gliders.〔Claus König, Friedhelm Weick: Owls of the World. Christopher Helm, London 2008, ISBN 978-0-7136-6548-2〕 Lesser sooty owls live long and have low production rates with a breeding season from January to August. They are classified as common even though they have a limited habitat range. Lesser sooty owls are protected animals under Australian law.〔P. J. Higgins (Hrsg): Handbook of Australian, New Zealand & Antarctic Bird, Band 4, Parrots to Dollarbird, Oxford University Press, Oxford 1999, ISBN 0195530713〕
