Burrowing Owl: Creature Power

56s

Chris and Martin are in the desert describing the places where the animals make their homes. The gila woodpecker, for example, makes holes in cacti where it lives and where other animals move into once the woodpecker moves to another spot. On another hand, prairie dogs and ground squirrels make holes on the ground which can later be used by gila monsters, rattlesnakes and even burrowing owls
