    I’ve never understood the hate. They are very nice and very pretty birds that are fully adapted to living among humans.

      Yeah, they’re very friendly animals. I used to work in the veterinary industry and some people would bring them in if they were injured. The law requires they be put to sleep if they’re brought in but we always released them when they were better.

      I remember having to hand feed a baby pigeon and it was the sweetest little bird.
