Description:
The population size of burrowing owl (Athene cunicularia)
in Washington is low. The burrowing owl is a state candidate species. This species is associated with shrubsteppe and grassland habitats, and has experienced a contraction of its range and decline in numbers due to loss of habitat and persecution of mammalian species that provide earthen burrows that owls use.

This data was supplied to Conservation Biology Institute by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife to be used in the WSU-LCSS Conservation model.
