>But in doing so, we’ve stripped away the very traits they need to survive on their own Interesting, I wonder if these explains why I do not see pigeons around the small city (~100,000) I live in. 40 years ago, you saw them everywhere, but in the mid to late 90s, hawks started showing up in the city. Now, you hardly seen any pigeons.
