Pigeons Shot at UK Stations | Bristol News
Description
Over 2,000 pigeons have been shot at UK train stations in just 16 months, with York Station alone accounting for 608 birds — including one day where 152 were eliminated. Train operators like LNER say it’s a last resort to prevent disease spread from droppings, but critics argue it’s inhumane. While some companies are shifting to non-lethal methods like egg removal, the debate rages on as advocates remind us pigeons were once cherished companions — and we may be the real problem.
