Owls do have ears and in fact they have a very keen sense of hearing. The range of sounds that owls are able to hear doesn’t actually differ from that of humans very much. These animals do however have a keener sense of hearing when it comes to detecting certain frequencies, which can be especially helpful when hunting their prey.
There are certain types of owls that have ear opens which are asymmetrical, with one ear being slightly higher than the other. These animals have very sensitive hearing, enabling them to hear their prey on the ground before swooping in to grab them.
