KIDS TRIVIA

Detailed explanation-1: -When Hedwig dies while saving Harry in Deathly Hallows: Part 1. Ever since Harry’s initial foray into Diagon Alley to buy school supplies, Hedwig the Owl has been his constant companion and his one connection to the wizarding world when he’s stuck at Privet Drive over the summer.

Detailed explanation-2: -Hedwig was one of J.K. Rowling’s most beloved creations – perhaps even more so than some of her human characters. It’s unlikely that there’s a single Harry Potter fan who didn’t shed a tear when Hedwig was killed in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

Detailed explanation-3: -In her estimation, in an attempt to protect the true Harry’s identity, Snape sacrifices Hedwig, thus keeping the other Death Eaters off his scent albeit for only a short time.

Detailed explanation-4: -According to the films, Hedwig’s killer might have been Selwyn, who was known to be pursuing Harry and Hagrid at the time since Hedwig’s death in the film happened quite a while into the fight when there was only a couple death eaters following them, or it might have been Stanley Shunpike under the Imperius Curse.
