NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV) - An officer with the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA) rescued an injured barn owl in Warren County.

Warren County Officer Jason Ramsey responded to a call involving the barn owl on Sunday, Nov. 30.

The TWRA stated that initially, no one knew what had happened.

A passerby noticed the owl, and when she moved closer to the bird, it didn’t move, the TWRA said.

The rehabilitation professional, Greg Garrison, told the TWRA that the owl was released on Monday morning.
