Feeding pigeons destroys the ecosystem, do you still support it? ~(✿ ͡° ⁄ ͜⁄ ⁄ ⁄ ͡°.)~

feeding wild animals is bad practice in general, but birbs can be especially destructive. Would you feed the pigeon even if it destroys the ecosystem? Do you know anyone in your family or friends that does that? What do you do to stop them?

Pigeons are a menace to society that must be eradicated.

If you are already in a big city where the natural terrain has basically been transformed into a place that is mainly surrounded by tall buildings, asphalt roads and everything else is simply concrete or man made structures, the Ecosystem there is already altered and destroyed.

Idk the answer but it reminded me of how once when I was waiting for the bus at a bus stop, some unknown granny came up to me and started asking me if I mind feeding the pigeons around the bus stop, because poeple don't care about animals nowadays and they don't feed them, and went on a whole monologue until my bus arrived some 10 min later

Of all the animals to pick, the OP chose one where its debatable if it is even a wild or domesticated animal. It's a bit like getting angry about people feeding cows.

You've got to feed them just in case. One of them might be an isekai'd character with superpowers. You want to get on their right side early on.

Pigeons to me are pests not pets. Please kill pigeons and turn them into meats like this. That all

Not sure what this has to do with anime, but

The ends don't justify the means and the opposite: the ends don't vilify the means.

You save some dude's life and he turns out to be a mass murderer, it's not your fault.

More to the point, if you save a bird from starving, it doesn't mean you are responsible for everything the bird does.

By the way, saving a human from starving is almost certainly going to do way more environmental damage than saving a bird. The best way to protect the environment is to kill as many humans as you can.

Oh fuck off, feeding otaku's ever-unsatisfied desire is even more harmful to humanity. Pigeons are alright. They taste good with mushroom in the oven.

Ah yeah, the same ecosystem that is responsible for more death and suffering than anything else in this world and has wiped out nearly 100% of the species that have inhabited our planet over the past billion years (and will inevitably wipe out all the rest if left unchecked). Must protect it at all cost and never interfere by helping wild animals indeed - weaklings!

Now, feeding pigeons is quite pointless in urban environments since they can usually get enough food by themselves anyway and all you do is slightly alter their behavior, but the logic given in this thread is quite silly. In fact, there are plenty of wild species that should be fed and protected or otherwise they risk extinction, whether it's from human hand or natural causes.

Common pigeons, aka Columba livia, those flying rats. Aerial bags of parasites and dirt. Calling them as rats is actually insulting to rats.

People who feed them and who smile at seeing pigeons breeding without any control, must really hate other birds who are harmed by pigeons directly, or indirectly (i.e. pigeons destroying their nests).

Sparrows are based. Pigeons are not.

I don't feed pigeons, but if I'm eating outside, I don't take any extra precautions to stop bread crumbs from being eaten by them.

I read an article that as species die/go extinct pigeons and rats will become the new pandas and cute animals to children.

Don't feed pigeons, or any bird for that matter. They always flock around and try to get more.

I've never licked feeding those damn winged rats! 

I still remember the day I was attacked by a pigeon flock, damn them! This was way back in 1988 in a Brussels square, and the mofo were all over me because I made the mistake of eating my French fries while walking 'cause my holder was "busy" and we need to "hustle my little one" "hustle" and I was simply over run by a bunch of them, it looked like something strait out of Alfred Hitchcock's movie The Birds.

All over me, on top of my head, my shoulders all around me, circling me on the floor like a pack of Hyenas. pecking away at my fries strait out the paper wrap.

Ffuk them to kingdom come! But Seagulls are even worst than pigeons! Those are real pirates of the sky! Double ffuk them!

Dude I am American, we didn't have mutant pigeons like Europe had short time after Chernobyl, at least back then that is. 

Also I was a scrawny 11 y/o boy, you could actually touch and count my entire rib cage, and when seated and bend forward you could see the bones in my spine, their shape and what not.

So of course after all this time I still remember it and feel bad about it. Wouldn't you?

Ah forgot about that and chernobyl haha we might be using V.A.T.S for the pigeon after the end of this current cold war. I guess i might, not sure? LAso idk sounds more like a fun positive memory maybe? you know like having a feud in primary school over something like which house you belong to (green, red , blue, and yellow) and creating factions in the classroom lol

@ChouunShiryuu
nothing says “ideal neighborhood” to a mystery otaku like a murder of crows on power lines.
And if your friend insists on feeding them?
You could gently suggest your friends could redirect their generosity to something less apocalyptic and suspenseful, like feeding Ryoutsu. Or better yet, hand them a broom and say, Since you summoned the winged menace, you get to clean up their poop... I couldn't find a pigeon screenshot or input crows.

Humans have already destroyed their ecosystem; urban areas are their new home. But I never feed pigeons, as far as I know. I don't think I've ever had the opportunity. It must be cool to watch them eat. One day, I'll feed pigeons and their ilk to admire their cuteness:D
