The pigeons are among the most extinct species on earth, and the pigeon is one of the most amazingly finished creatures. The number of pigeons has fallen from billions to the number of this type of pigeon zero in less than a hundred years, and we will discover together ten wonderful facts about The pigeon bath.
1- The swarm of pigeons consists of billions:
At the beginning of the 19th century, pigeon pigeons were the most common bird in North America, possibly the whole world, and the number of pigeons was estimated at about five billion or so. However, these birds did not spread equally throughout Mexico, Canada and the United States, The continent in huge herds sun-obscured the sun literally, the pigeon-pigeon migrated dozens (or even hundreds) of miles from the beginning of the journey to the end.
2_ Almost every person in North America ate pigeons:
The pigeons were prominently featured in the diets of Native American and European settlers who arrived in North America from the 16th century. Indigenous peoples preferred to target pigeons in their hunting habit, but as soon as immigrants arrived from the ancient world, the pigeon pigeon was hunted from During guns, pigeon pigeons were a crucial source of food for internal colonists, who may suffer from hunger to death.
3 - pigeon pigeons are caught through the bathroom faeces:
The fishermen were hunting the pigeon pigeon through the bathroom faeces, by dropping the faeces of the pigeons on the ground in the fishing area next to the large nets that were prepared to catch the pigeon, and the people of the pigeonholes will see that the fall of the bathroom faeces is a sign or indication of the falling bath on the ground, The bathroom is then easily picked through the nets.
4 - tons of dead pigeons were shipped east in the rail cars:
The pigeon was used as a food source for the increasingly congested cities of the east coast. Midwestern anglers have surrounded and shot tens of millions of these birds, and they have been stacked eastward across the intercontinental railway network. The spiders and nesters were so dense that An incompetent fisherman can kill dozens of pigeon pigeons with one shot of a gun.
5 - pigeons laying one egg at a time:
The female pigeons put one egg at a time, and yet they believed that the last thing to expect was the world's need for more pigeons because of their enormous numbers. The pigeons were building their trees on the dense forests of the northern United States, Canada , And in 1871 natural scientists estimated that the land of Wisconsin which is about 1000 square miles absorbed more than 100 million pigeons and was referred to as the land of multiplication.
6 - young pigeons fed on the milk of the vesicle:
Modern young pigeons feed on the milk of the vesicle, which is similar to cheese. This milk is released from the parents' throat. Young children continue to eat the vesicle milk for 3-4 days and then abandon it. During the first week, modern birds must know how to Leave the nest, and look for food to stay.
7 - Deforestation and hunting control on pigeons finishing:
Hunting in itself can not erase these large numbers of pigeons in this short period, but also deforestation in North America to make room for American settlers. Deforestation has not only prevented the nesting of pigeon pigeons, but when these birds ate from cultivated crops On the cleared land, angry farmers exterminated millions of pigeons.
8. Keeping the pigeons very late:
Some Americans thought of trying to keep the pigeons before they were extinct, and the Ohio state legislature rejected the demand in 1857, because the pigeons do not need protection. The pigeons have fertile grounds, and the vast forests in the north have plenty of nests and travel Dog pigeons are hundreds of miles in search of food, and normal destruction can not be underestimated.
9 - The last pigeon of the pigeons died in captivity in 1914:
By the 19th century, only a few thousand pigeons remained in the wild, and some fishermen kept a private group in zoos. The last strong view of the pigeon was in the wild in 1900 in Ohio, the last sample in captivity was Martha, On 1 September 1914.
10. It may be possible to return the pigeons again:
Although pigeons no longer exist, scientists have access to soft tapeworm tissues, which have been preserved in many museums around the world. In theory, it may be possible to combine DNA from These tissues with a type of pigeon called the genome, and then the pigeon is born and back to exist, but so far, though, no one has accepted this difficult task.
