Pigeon Hatching Science, San Francisco Sterilization Programs
Two pigeons, nicknamed Fred and Ginger, successfully hatched chicks on a windowsill ledge in San Francisco after several failed nesting attempts. Observations suggest that the city of San Francisco may be using chemical-laced feed to make the local pigeon population sterile. Feeding the birds organic raisin muesli appeared to assist in the successful hatching of the two chicks, debunking the local legend that baby pigeons are never seen in the wild.
