A rare tawny owl named Sherman, after the Seattle Seahawks CB Richard Sherman, has been stolen from the Raptor House bird sanctuary in Washington:

The tawny owl is native to Europe and Asia, not North America, and Sherman could be worth $3,000 to $4,000 on the black market, Shannon Dalan said Tuesday.

"This bird is rare," he said. "They knew what they were looking for. The person who stole it walked past other, native birds."

The police say they do not have any suspects. It was definitely Michael Crabtree though, right?
