<dinofyi-dinosaur slug="bubo-lacteus"></dinofyi-dinosaur>Bubo lacteus, the Verreaux's eagle-owl or milky eagle-owl, is the largest owl in Africa and one of the largest owls in the world. A powerful nocturnal carnivore, it hunts mammals up to the size of small monkeys, as well as birds and reptiles. Subfossil material attributed to this species was recovered from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, providing Pleistocene records for this long-lived lineage.
