Adorable Owls; Have they ever looked so cute?

For this scavenger hunt I found a video about owls, showing a variety of owls being pet or just sitting turning their heads. I went searching for ads or commercials on AOL because I figured I could get something interesting there. The title of this video is: Lovely Owl: Cute/Ridiculous Animal Thing Of The Day. With this title including the words lovely, cute, and ridiculous already your mind is shaping what you think these owls will look like. They start with the cutest little owl that looks like a little stuffed animal you should find on a shelf at Target. It’s almost too cute to be real. They then continue on showing many beautiful owls. In this video they use the romantic quality of feelings or emotions over reason or facts. For example, no one we really know, besides Harry Potter, owns an owl as a pet. But this video shows you a lady’s hand petting these adorable owls, making us watching this think, wow I would love an owl as a pet, how do I not have an owl yet? It tricks us by their completely adorable selves, their stuffed animal, plush likeness that makes us all ignore reality and want one for our homes. It also uses the romantic quality of the beauty of nature over civilization. I truly think that is why so many people are infatuated with Harry Potter’s owl. Because we typically forget about owls when we think about nature and forests and hiking trails. They are always not always seen either, so they can also be a rarity. The music is I think a whole other story to make us get this adorable, cute, cuddly feeling. It is the type of music that reminds me of the happy, sweet, cheery, make-believe world of the hobbits. Like the sound of a hobbits child’s birthday music when they are all happy, celebrating, you know, in movies, when people are looking around smiling and happy and laughing. It just makes you feel happy. Even listening to this music alone, without the owls, you would feel all happy and lovey inside. The social construct of this overall makes you just completely happy, like hearing Christmas music for the first time of the year. In this video I think this is politically advancing wild life conservation. It makes us love the owls and want to keep the earth healthy, clean, and keep process green so we can preserve this cute fluff ball forever. Conserving our wild life will make is so future generations can pet these cute little owls when they have the chance, rather than learning about them in history class about how they have become extinct. I’m quite happy I found this cute video though.
