In Australia, powerful owls (Ninox strenua), renowned for their impressive size and haunting calls, have adapted from their traditional habitats in old-growth forests to urban areas, capitalizing on artificial light to hunt. While these adaptations may seem beneficial for the owls, the reliance on urban lighting raises concerns about the health of both predator and prey populations. The encroaching light pollution disrupts natural behaviors of nocturnal species and shifts ecological dynamics, affecting everything from breeding cycles to food availability. Despite advancements in lighting technology, excessive artificial light continues to pose a significant threat to biodiversity. Initiatives like DarkSky International aim to mitigate this impact through the establishment of ‘dark sky’ reserves, promoting awareness and conservation efforts to preserve the ecological and cultural significance of natural darkness in Australia.
