      If we are talking about the books. I think that (If it WAS snape), then he saw hedwig moving and making noises and realized "Shes gonna give him away!" Because i think even flying you would eventually notice that owls not moving. Then see the one that is, and "THAT'S HIM!" So snape killed her, still in the cage, so she could look like a stuffed fake like the rest and not give him away.

    Didn't the other "Potters" have stuffed snowy owls in cages, though? Or am I remembering that wrong?
    Edit: I was right - Chapter 4, The Seven Potters: "Once dressed, the fake Harrys took rucksacks and owl cages, each containing a stuffed snowy owl, from the second sack." However, just before Hedwig is killed, her cage slips from between Harry's legs; Harry quickly catches it, yelling "No - HEDWIG!" as he does so. This yell, implying that he cares about the bird in the cage (i.e. it's a real bird, not stuffed like the others), is what gave him away to - according to this theory - Snape.

      Wizards can travel to other countries if they want and bring back owls for sale in Britain. Just like muggles can bring animals from anywhere they want for display in zoos. So - 1. Not native to Britain - not a problem.
      Snowy owls don't eat bacon IN THE WILD. But if you have one in captivity, and you offer it bacon, I'll bet you cash that the owl will eat it! So - 2. Don't eat bacon - not a problem.
      Large wingspan. So what? Does it say in the books anywhere what her wingspan was?
      So mute. Well... magic?

      In the wild snowy owls are mostly mute, expect during mating season, defending territory, and when attacking other small animals. So they can make noise, and they actually have a lot of noises that they can make. I always assumed that Hedwig making a lot of noise was do to the fact that she was domesticated and probably born into captivity. Lots of animals make more sound in captivity then in the wild. Take, for example, a feral cat v. a house cat. Feral cats are mostly silent, only making sounds during mating time and for territorial reasons, where as house cats have sounds for all ranges of emotions and times of day. As for eating bacon, I just chalk that up to bad ownership more then anything. I mean dogs don't eat mashed potatoes or ice cream in the wild, but there are dog owners who feed their dogs those foods.

    I've thought this theory for so long I honestly forgot it wasn't canon.

    Ben:”I think I know specifically Who killed her, today we discuss”
    Me who has already read the title: “Omg I wonder who it is😱”

    Even in the magical world, birds are actually just government spies.

    This makes perfect sense and would fit Snape’s character completely.

    The wise words of Queenie... “ don’t you mean hogwash?” Everyone knows illvermory is only the greatest magical school. Thanks for the video boys. Another good one and love the banter between the both of you. Keep it up!

    It makes sense. Snape was living in a total dilemma as a double agent.

    I always thought Harry named her Hedwig because she had her _head_ under her _wing_
    Head+wing=Headwing= Hedwig

      Just read the book, to paraphrase: 'and harry looked through his history of magic book until he found a likely name.'

    • @littlemissfinch
      @littlemissfinch Před 4 lety

      kindlin I've known harry potter existed a little while before I read the books, and when I did, the book would every so often say that Hedwig had her head under her wing, and I thought, ”oh! That must be how Hedwig got her name!” but when I read about the book, it just gave me a new perspective to look at and think about over time.

    Did anybody realize hedwig practically save Harry’s life? Like that killing curse was straight at his face...
