Australian masked owls hunt small mammals up to the size of rabbit; small birds, lizards, and insects are also taken.  The prey items are swallowed whole, with the hair, feathers, and bones regurgitated later as a pellet, which are found below their nesting sites.

Hollow tree trunks or caves are nesting sites, where up four white eggs are laid.  Males do not incubate the eggs; instead they provide the food while the female tends to the eggs.  Chicks are fledged at 10-12 weeks of age.
