I've been around these fine birds for 10 years now,I'm still alive,and
had NO illnesses caused by them.One man said his Aunt sliped on pigon
poop and hurt herself,so he feels that all these birds should be killed,well
if she had sliped in Bald Eagle poop,should we kill all Eagles too?Maybe
his Aunt should have her eyes checked.

OZZIE OZZIE ! OI OI OI!
just about a couple of hours ago i found this pigeon while walking
with my friends it was on the floor helplessly trying to get p and
fly away but it couldnt. I mean i had no idea what was wrong with
it but i felt pity for it. I have a dog and love it, and because of
him i love most animals even pigeons. So i ran back home got a shoebox
and lined with a soft blanket then took out some gloves and picked
up the pigeon carefully then put it in the box. Once i got home my
sis who hates birds was going on bout' there's soooo many pigeons
in the world if one dies another one borns like us humans. but the
thing is she was right and also like us humans when one human dies
it is said, it is pitifull, it is shameless......... and i couldnt
let the pigeon die so ive been taking care of it now. So i dont think
they should kill pigeons and if u poms are complaining about SOOOOOOO
! ma! ny pigeons in your country look almost half of pigeons live
in australasia i live in ozz. think bout' that we dun complain so
u shouldnt! have a heart okies? if you wanna kill pigeons its better
off that u should kill yourself coz we are both animals! i dont care
if u mock me or anything coz im sticking up for helpless defenceless
pigeons they need us and all u do is kill them, u people who want
to kill birds are selfish u just want your whole country without any
pigeons that is really hoggy we are all on the same earth to get along
with each other, i may hate spiders and cockroaches but i still actually
have a heart.......so you should to!!!!!!! and remember us ozzies
got it even harder but we dun complain u bunch of lousy wimps! hmph!

Why don't we send all pigeons from the U.S. to England. Overall, they
seem suprisingly pigeon friendly. Or perhaps we could get them to
fly over on their own with grammar handbooks in their little beaks.

Pigeons....
Pigeons are lovely birds....There inteligent, trainable and good Fun
to race. If there that much of a problem, cleanining up the area,
and banning the feeding of these birds is a good start. Attempting
to them all can be dangerous to the envroment in certian cercumstances.
If you poison the birds, these toxins could find thier way down the
food chain...Some of these birds might be hobbyists birds too. If
you shoot them, some will escape and replenish the population. Cutting
off thier food source is the best way to get rid of a problem. For
both the birds, and people.

pidgeons
After reading the many opinions on this subject, I feel ready to put
mine forward. I do think that some sort of cull is needed by whatever
means neccessary. I am referring to the wild pidgeons and not the
pet pidgeons people keep. I feel that they are a hazard to peoples
health as has been documented.

Should
we kill all the pigeons
On October 5th 2000 on the front page of "The Long Eaton Advertiser"
was the comment "Time to Stop those pigeons" along with a "set-up"
photograph of two local shopkeepers" smiling and leaning on brooms
implying that the situation was that bad they were having to sweep
up outside their shops. I responded by sending "a letter" both to
Bill Smith the Principal Environmental Health Officer and Phil Jackson
the Assistant Environmental Health Officer for Erewash Borough Council.
The letter reads as follows:- I read with interest the front page
regarding pigeons in Long Eaton. Firstly the problem we have in Long
Eaton as traders is not the fault of the pigeons, but the "take-aways".
As a condition of trading they should be made to supply bins outside
their premises to prevent these enormous cartons from being continually
strewn all over the pavements and road. I am s! ur! e it is not a
coincidence that the complainants shown in the advertiser have a pizza
shop next door to them. Lethal methods are cruel and proved to be
completely ineffective. Let Erewash Council lead the way in showing
more humane ways of resolving these problems. Scare mongering tactics
as shown in the advertiser ie "40 viruses including 60 transmittable
diseases", and "putting their health at risk" does no-one any favours.
According to PICAS they have not known one person in 25 years who
has been affected by pigeons in this manner. Perhaps we can encourage
the pigeons to move away from the town centre by providing dovecotes
or pigeon lofts in the park or other areas, and if seating were provided
this would encourage some of the people who feed them, to move with
them, so reducing or even eliminating the numbers in the town. If
the birds were contained in certain areas, the lofts could be cleaned
and eggs removed on a regular basis, so restricting the breeding process!
. ! An effective method of "birth control"!! I would urge you to look
on the internet at the PICAS site - Pigeon Control Advisory Service.
It is a charity so the information is free. They provide advise and
information on effective pigeon control. - www.picas.org. It is 15
months since I sent the letters, they were addressed personally, and
sent recorded delivery, and neither have had the decency to reply
to me. So Bill Smith and Phil Jackson - here you are - named and shamed.

I can't believe this is even a debate. OK kill the nuisance pigeons,
and the homeless, what about the elderly, they sometimes get in my
way. In fact get rid of every living creature on the planet except
those that have never annoyed anyone, life would be so much better!!!!

pigeons carry 50 different diseases but don't worry only 26 can kill
you. if you had to bury your wife or child do you, because of a pigeon
do you think you would want to shoot one or all of them then. how
about watching your son die from brain tumors, three years in pain.
what about then? these birds are disease spreaders in the worst way
and were worried about terrorist.

It's a shame that we can't enjoy the city without being bombarded
with pigeons. They are classed as vermin by the Health authority.
Stopping feeding them is not enough, There are ways of controlling
their numbers humainly. they cost the environment thousands of pounds
in clean-up costs. lets get rid of them!

My Aunty slipped and fell, in juring both her hip and her pride, due
to unwittingly walking over a patch of the vile and horrid excrement
these so called pigeons leave on the pavements and walkways which
humans have spent good money and time creating. Do these "pigeons"
(devils I call them) not realise that they have no right to behave
in this way. They should all go back to Wales where they belong.

poisoned
pigeons in the park?
I think that we can all safely blame Mary Poppins for the current
pigeon overcrowding. If it wasn't for that little cute beggar woman,
convincing little kids to spend their money on pigeon food, instead
of chocolates, then we wouldn't be in this mess to begin with. "Tuppence
a Bag". but is it ereally tuppence a bag? I don't think so. if you
take into account all the misery these tame pigeons have caused, it
really adds up. I offer up that we should all spend our sunday's poisoning
pigeons in the park.

Should
we kill our Pigeons?
I think people should not feed pigeons in public places. You will
find that it is mostly ignorant old women who do so, even the food
they throw down for the pigeons is a mess and health hazard to normal
people. They do cause a lot of disgusting mess and disease. It costs
the tax payer thousands and thousands of pounds a year to clean up
their mess from public places, buildings, hospital voids etc. Money
that could be better spent elsewhere ie. to educate ignorant old women
or to lock them up. Exterminate all city/town pigeons, thats what
I say.

Pigeons
In the wild these birds would be subject to natural predators. However
this is not the case in Nottingham. The population of pigeons needs
to be controled in some manner. I suggest the following ways:
1. An enforced Ban on feeding of Pigeons. Feeding birds does not help
the problem. There are plenty of food sources for them ie. insects,
worms etc. (My next door neighbour places entire loaves of bread out
every day for the 'birds'. The fact that the rodent population has
been encouraged by such activity fails to sink in).
2. Lace Pigeon feed with a contraceptive substance. This could be
tied in with number 1 above. ie. if you feed pigeons with approved
form of laced food no prosecution.
3. Use a natural predator where necessary. These methods combined
should control the pigeon population to more acceptable levels.

Should
we kill all the pigeons
I don't live near Nottingham. In fact, I live in the United States,
but this problem with pigeons seems universal. Yes the issue should
be delt with. Do they all need to be killed? Probably not. However,
the infestation that seems to be going on outside my home has brought
me to this forum. I was looking for ways to eliminate the flying pests.
Trust me, I will find a way soon.

Any where you go in Nottingham there are pigeons and their poo everywhere.
Why do people insist on feeding the things? It only attracts them
to public areas and they are health risk. Stop feeding the vermin,
I'm sure they can fend for themselves they've been around for long
enough.

If pigeons were rats this question wouldn't even be asked.At least
Rats don't fly in your face and c### on your clothes, get rid of the
pigeons then get rid of the fools that feed them, if people want wildlife
then they should go into the country.

What sort of mentality do some people have? If an animal is a problem
then there solution is "shoot it." Very Christmasy! Live and let live.
The pigeons have been here a long, long time and we've managed to
co-exist with them so far. Leave them alone. Tony Ashford.

- Cull or not to cull?
I've recently moved out of London to enjoy a more rural life, but
I remember well the mess that pigeons and those that feed them cause
in places like Trafelgar Squ. I actual think healthy pigeons add much
to London. The problem is that they need to managed. Diseased, mal-nourished
pigeons and even some, missing feet are an all too common site in
London. I feel that they would be less objectionable to some people
if they were looked after properly.

I find pigeons remarkable creatures with many surprising characteristics
. just the other day we succesfully milked a stray pair of local pigeons
for half a cup full . the taste is slightly metalic but in my mind
a far superior substitute to powdered milk. Im currantly looking for

Don't get me wrong, pigeons or any other living creature (like Big
Issue sellers) are fine in moderation. Once we get to a level that
is uncontrollable then something must be done to control them, as
they become a pest. I personally believe that we must relocate these
helpless creatures to the more sparsley populated areas like Siberia.

Okay, i'd consider myself more of an animal lover than an animal hater
but with regards to the pigeons in the city center ive had just about
enough! My sugestion is to try and catch a load and then move them
to a different location, if they come back, they get shot, simple
as. Its their own damn fault for coming back!

Pigeons should be left alone except for being given veterinary treatment
when necessary and bird food sellers should come to the Old Market
Square. These birds are a delight to see and should be nurtured and
cared for by us all. Pigeons spread less desease than people do, they
also tend to leave less rubbish around the streets too.

oh dear!
spinksy - yes racing pigeons played a great part in wars - no one's
arguing they didn't - we're talking about feral pigeons (often lost
racing pigeons) in urban environments.
i say kill them
humanely - pluck 'em and cook 'em - i've plenty of recipes.
here's an idea
- why not have an annual pigeon shoot - pay so much to enter - winner
one who gets most piggies in an hour or whatever - some small prize
maybe. proceeds to local charity - perhaps the winner could choose
as their prize, then cook the piggies and either distribute to needy,
or sell and money to charity
Mmm! reckon that should put the cat among the pigeons
incidentally one of my uncles had many champion racing pigeons

If people cleaned up after themselves pigeons would have less to eat.
This would equal less pigeons, it would also mean the stronger more
DISEASE FREE pigeons would outlive the unhealthy ones. Problem solved.
On the hand you can run around with hawks and airguns, personally
I would rather risk the pigeons of market square.

There is strong difference between pigeons kept as pets and those

songbirds.the r.s.p.b.are at present breeding hawks and releasing
them in the wild.hawks dont mind what they eat,if you know a gamekeeper
ask him his opinion about hawks they dont care as long as its eatable.they
eat more songbirds than anything else.

Dont
Kill Pegions
For me, my pet is pegion and i really love them, I treated them as
member of the family, Why? because i love them. People think that
pegion is dangerous because it caries deseases, for me it depends
upon how you are going to take care. But if you are going to take
care nicely i think you dont have any problem. Like me, everyday,
I let the pegion take a shower before i go to work, and besides that
i clean the yard too. So i dont have any problem with them because
they are nice and tame already. So please dont kill them because they
are part of living things.And God created them too. Danny Gutierrez

City pigeons are flying scum. Rats only carry diseases communicable
to people, pigeons carry 17. They xxxx over everything, they bother
old ladies, get rid of them. Bring back the hawks, they keep the pigeons
away & get a snack into the bargain - or shoot them. They are a mobile
health hazard. EXTERMINATE !!!

I say leave the pidgeons alone, they have been here for years.What
is going to be said ,when there are no pidgeons. Alright they make
a mess what bird does,nt. I hear nothing mentioned about the masses
of starlings. And remember pidgeons were used in the first and second
world wars,passing vital messages on.Wether they be Ferral or Racing
pidgeons they are still part of our human enviroment and do not forget
we humans are the worst polluters out.

Pigeons are vermin and should be controlled. Those people who think

You seem to forget Pat Pigeon that we're talking about pigeons in
Nottingham here and not how humans destroy the envirorment. Those
who say that pigeons need to have thier numbers controlled have NOT
said that they hate pigeons. Just because we are trying to reduce
the numbers of pigeons who have adapted to living in an envirorment
soley built as a habitat for humans in order to prevent our own species
from catching diseases doesn't mean we all hate them.

To the pigeon haters:
I have never
read such a collection of moronic comments. There are a few more
intelligent exceptions, but most of the remarks on here suggest
that contributors are far more stupid than the pigeons they wish
to exterminate.
Humans do the
damage, we are the ones that mess up the environment. The level
of debate on here emphasises that we are not fit to judge the habits
of other species.
Get a life,
you sad people. Find something really important - world poverty
perhaps - to get wound up about, and stop scapegoating pigeons.
Your shit makes
a mess too. You carry diseases. You make too much noise. You litter
up town centres. Easier though, isn't it, to find something smaller
and more vulnerable to blame it all on? You should be ashamed of
yourselves.
I hope you pigeon
haters are all having fulfilling happy lives, full of joy at the
everyday beauties of existence, full of wonder at the marvels of
creation. But somehow I doubt it.

To PapaRoachFan:
don't
you realise that cavemen ate animal meat, raw,those millions of
years ago? Did they leave prints in caves or any other signs to
say they think it's wrong to eat animals? Oh, so it's perfectly
alright for foxes to eat chickens, or vultures to eat dead carcasses?
Humans have always eaten meat, just as spiders eat flies. Are people
going to say that spiders don't have a right to kill flies? For
food? We also, like many species, kill animals for food. We ARE
still in the food chain after all. Lions kill antelope. Why don't
poeple run out on safari and stop a lion killing an antalope? Is
it cruel to even think of a lion killing an antelope? No, some people
say;it's natural. Well isn't it natural that humans eat meat too?
didn't you realise that? Lions kill for food=humans kill for food.
Do you see a connection? It's perfectly fine to be a vegetarian
if you don't want to eat meat!
, !
but don't start abusing those who do. So you're saying that God
created animals not be killed....by other EVIL animals, even mammals,
just to survive. You haven't really thought out what you just said.

Kebabs
& Pigeons
I think pigeons had something against me, for (this is true!) one
of them decided to use my kebab as a suitable spot to excrete it's
droppings right in it! However, this applies to all those animal lovers,
how could you call the human race as the most evil/dangerous species
when the black and white Killer Whales are known to toy and kill baby
whales from other whale species for fun, and only eat a small section
of their jaws (true cos I watched the Blue Planet!)? But you don't
have a go at them, do you? But when humans even talk about shooting
pigeons the entire community of animal lovers become enraged? I think
alot of those people don't think first before they yell out in anguish
at such matters. THINK FIRST!!! Humans are naturally aggressive beings,
evolution has done that (heck we even fight each other!)We have become
rather smart and so we can change the surrounding world to fit our
species. Some poeple recognise pigeons as a health hazard. True in
some cases because they can. We don't need to SHOOT all pigeons; there's
no need to do that. But we do need to CONTROL them before they get
too out of hand, population wise. We have the intelligence and power
to do so, so let's do that.

Well, all these people getting all pissed off, oh my, "oh dont kill

sad dream types,! & thats if your going to post a comment read the
ones before!! idiot, learn a little about what your commenting about!
Listen to others who tell you about the disease's & things you can
catch, Ambulance Drivers express more care picking up a Prostitute
than the RSPCA do with pigeons! does that place a few little things
in your mind? They were introduced because we once used to eat them,
thats why three called feral pigeons!! So now that we dont use them
or monitor there comdition there allowed to go on carrying parasites
& disease! theres so many ways to control pigeons, but the natural
& most succesful way is food related, not hawks not poision nor shooting,
People have been killing rabbits for years & they still make there
numbers back, there a baseline food subject, there meant to be killed
in large numbers and recover quickly. Just prevent the intake of food
they have assess to, ban all the little old ladies who contribute
to there TB & asper. Slap the same controls as rat upon them, would
you feed a rat while your having a picnic?, no, but rats carry less
transmitable disease's. Well thats all i have to say for now, Im a
pestcontrol tech, I use hawks inside building to remove birds from
area that cant be shot or have wires placed. Just remember to have
things in perspective when reading these mails! what would your first
reaction to somebody walking towards you with a rat hanging in his
hand be? not the same as a pigeon huh!! but both can KILL YOU, just
remember that!!

The pigeons that infect our cities are a definite health hazard and
should not be there. Most of the pigeons are 'wood' pigeons and that
is where they belong. If people who like wood pigeons want to see
them, let them go to the woods. Why should the majority have to suffer
the inconvenience of pigeons just to please a small minority?

SAVE
THE PIGEON
Pigeons like many other feral animals do need to be controlled but
we would not have the problems of feral pigeons and rats if we the
general public would clean up after ourselves if we could cut down
on all the waste food burgers and chips, takeaways there would be
no foods source therefore feral numbers would drop. Lets not forget
there are many types of pigeon the common street pigeon fancy breeds
and pigeons that are capable of covering 600 miles in one day ( the
most expensive pigeon in the world cost 拢110,000 brought for breeding
purposes). So remember not all pigeons are "flying rats" and that
pigeon fanciers in this country donate hundreds of thousands of pounds
to charity every year.
