An endangered Florida owl was found on the world's largest cruise ship, The Royal Caribbean's plant-infused Oasis of the Seas. The ship was leaving Port Everglades, Florida to head to the Caribbean.
The ship was docked in Fort Lauderdale so the Owl could be removed from the artificial golf course on the upper deck of the ship. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission was called to capture the owl. It took 30 minutes to capture the owl, because she flew from tree to tree and rafter to rafter on the ship. She was eventually caught with a butterfly net and released in Markham Park.
This ship has a lot of greenery so it is usually not uncommon to see butterflies or birds on the ship but this was the first time that an owl got on the ship.
