Please don’t feed the pigeons
The feral pigeon is a descendant of the domestic pigeon (Columba livia domestica), also known as the rock dove or rock pigeon. Because they live in urban environments, their natural feeding habits of seed and fruits changed. Instead, they forage for food humans provide or leave behind. Eliminating their food supply by controlling garbage and litter helps reduce feral pigeon populations. Officials in Venice, Italy, famously prohibit visitors from feeding pigeons. The city’s ban has been in place since 1997, with a fine of 500 euros or more for lawbreakers.
