Owls are a group of birds that are members of the order of Strigiformes. This bird is a class of birds (carnivores, meat eaters) and is a night animal (nocturnal). Altogether, there are about 222 known species, spreading all over the world except Antarctica, most of Greenland, and some remote islands.

In the western world, this animal is considered a symbol of wisdom, but in some places in Indonesia it is considered a bearer of deathless preview, hence the name Owls. However not everywhere in the archipelago this bird is called an owl. In Java for example, the name of this bird is darès or manuk darès which has no connotation with death or ghost. In North Sulawesi, the owl is known as Manguni.
