Bird sanctuary still missing owl

An owl sanctuary in Suffolk where 10 birds of prey were set free has said all but one are now back in captivity.

It is thought animal rights activists used bolt-cutters to break into cages at Stonham Barns, near Stowmarket.

The Suffolk Owl Sanctuary has described the action as mindless. An 11-year-old Pharaoh owl is still missing.

Staff arrived at the sanctuary on Friday morning to find a snowy owl on the lawn and five birds missing. Since then four have been recaptured.
