Sea Shepherd Pigeon Rescue: what to do with injured, ill and orphaned pigeons at Pigeons As Pets Nearly everyone has seen an ill, injured or orphaned pigeon in their life – be it in a city, town, park or a garden. There are a lot of predators, disease and harmful things out there that affect pigeons, and sometimes people don’t know what is the right thing to do when they come across a baby pigeon or an injured or ill pigeon. First, let me just say that pigeons do not carry millions of diseases that humans can contract. A pest or vermin is defined by people as any animal that is unwanted or destructive, such as rats, mice, pigeons, foxes and racoons, but this term could very well be attributed to cats, dogs, parrots and songbirds, depending on which country and area you are in. The following website supplies good points on the subject (particularly the last paragraph): Pigeons and disease Ok, back to what to do when you come across an injured, ill or orphaned pigeon. After you have the pigeon in a secure box and put it in a warm, safe place (not outside!)

Biodiversity is the degree of variation of life.[1] This can refer to genetic variation, species variation, or ecosystem variation[1] within an area, biome, or planet. Terrestrial biodiversity tends to be highest near the equator,[2] which seems to be the result of the warm climate and high primary productivity.[3] Marine biodiversity tends to be highest along coasts in the Western Pacific, where sea surface temperature is highest and in mid-latitudinal band in all oceans.[4] Biodiversity generally tends to cluster in hotspots,[5] and has been increasing through time[6][7] but will be likely to slow in the future.[8] Rapid environmental changes typically cause mass extinctions.[9][10][11] One estimate is that <1%–3% of the species that have existed on Earth are extant.[12] The United Nations designated 2011–2020 as the United Nations Decade on Biodiversity.
