The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It is known as the boreal owl or, more rarely, Richardson's owl after Sir John Richardson, in North America, and as Tengmalm's owl in Europe and Asia, after the Swedish naturalist Peter Gustaf Tengmalm.
- Due to its nocturnal habits and preferred inaccessible taiga forest habitat, it is rarely seen by humans, when met with, it is often extremely confiding, showing little or no fear of people, only flying off if approached to within 3–5 metres.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Boreal owl article was read about 34,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 70 and blocks with 81: each hit it takes is cut by 32 %.
