How to get rid of Barn Owls

Obviously, we don’t want to get rid of, or kill Barn Owls, but we do want to raise awareness of the threats they face every single day and to grab the attention of the wider public.
The Barn Owl Trust has been dedicated to the protection and conservation of Barn Owls for over 35 years.
This shocking film shows some of the deadly threats that wild Barn Owls face from man-made hazards and contains some upsetting scenes.
Barn Owls used to be common in our countryside but now they are a rare and precious sight.
A few years ago, at the Royal Cornwall Show, one of our staff was overheard talking to a landowner saying, “If we had wanted to kill Barn Owls we couldn’t have done a better job”. He then went on to list all the things we humans have done in the pursuit of ‘progress’ that have affected this iconic species.
When filmmaker Robbie Hill produced our set of ten ‘How to’ films two years ago, he promised to make us another one free of charge. What we wanted was something simple that could show all the hazards Barn Owls face, why they have declined and reach beyond the people that already care.
Lockdown provided Robbie the time to pull all our ideas together and the result is this short, hard hitting, fact-filled, quirky film that we hope will make people think……..
