Why would any two owlbears be exactly the same?  I tweak monsters all the time.   Sometimes there's in world explanations,  sometimes it's just that you stumbled across a particularly ornery owlbear. It's not going to start breathing fire unless there's an in world reason, but some individual creatures may well be more or less dangerous than standard.  I will likely give descriptive hints but just because you've never run across a dragon that casts spells doesn't mean this one won't. Truly exceptional monsters are rare, but a fair amount of variance can happen more often.  If the PCs don't know or somehow learn something, I see no reason to inform the players.</blockquote>
