In Sample 1, 8 out of 100 students own a bird as a pet.
In Sample 2, 12 out of 100 students own a bird as a pet.
Total number of students owning a bird as a pet = 8 (from Sample 1) + 12 (from Sample 2) = 20
Total number of students = 100 (from each sample)
Percentage of students owning a bird as a pet = (20 / 200) * 100 = 10%
Therefore, 10% of students own a bird as a pet based on the two samples.
