This diminutive owl has a very
restricted distribution and small
population in British Columbia.The
overall abundance of Burrowing
Owls is limited by the availability of suitable
habitat. The grasslands in which
they live are restricted to the dry valley
bottoms of the Southern Interior and
comprise less than one percent of the
area of the province. This already small
area of natural grassland is being further
diminished by expanding towns, intensive
agriculture and urbanisation, especially
in the Okanagan Valley and the
Thompson-Nicola region.
