    This image of an injured saw whet owl named Hutton has been shared, stolen, made into multiple memes and passed around the internet many times. Unfortunately his story is rarely told. Hutton was hit by a car in 2008 which left him blind in one eye. Depending on the angle his right eye often appears orange. After his re-hab he was sent to Mountsberg Raptor Centre in Campbellville Ontario Canada to live out the rest of his life as an ambassador for his species. He passed away in 2010.
