Two young owls were found nesting under the famous Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury during Guns N' Roses' headline set, an animal charity has revealed.
The team at Secret World Wildlife Rescue (SWWR) in Somerset described the incident as "the most unusual disturbance case" they have encountered this year. According to the rescuers, one of the owls, named Axl after the band's vocalist Axl Rose, was found under the steps of the prestigious Pyramid Stage during the LA band's performance on Saturday, June 24.
The following day, the nature charity received a call about the second owl, which was discovered trapped under the stage. This owl was aptly named Slash, in honor of guitarist Saul Hudson's stage name. Axl and Slash, believed to be siblings, were swiftly reunited at the RSPCA West Hatch Wildlife Centre in Taunton before being transferred to SWWR.
