Well, yes, that's where I have trouble: if the correct translation for
Dorsim is raptors (as it indeed is, because like you said, the term refers
to mode of hunting) then why confuse people by translating it into owls?

If there is a correct term, shouldn't it be used? We should actively think
why we use our terms because these terms educate the public. Possibly we
also need to consider our terms for day hunters as well.

In any case, all opinions have been voiced and this has been a good
discussion. I started it mainly for myself, to better understand the
situation. Thank you all day and night owls who have sounded your voices!
