Read the article, “In Defence of Pigeons”, by Dr Steve Portugal of Royal Holloway College, which describes how cruelly pigeons are treated today - a direct consequence of the media campaign against them.

Pigeons need full and effective protection under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981. Under the Act, it is an offence to harm any wild bird, including pigeons. Please ask your MP to get the Wildlife and Countryside Act enforced, so that all wild birds, including pigeons, are properly protected from abuse.
Meanwhile, pigeons are still being maligned by the media. Their vital contribution, as heroic messengers and lifesavers of war, must never be forgotten.
Please share and sign this petition. One day, we will get the abuse of pigeons stopped.
Many thanks for your support.
