Summary
Pigeons are dying in horrific numbers after getting trapped in netting installed under bridges in New York and New Jersey, sparking outrage among wildlife advocates who say the city’s solution is deadly. Rescuers found birds starved and lifeless, even after trying to intervene — only to be met with police warnings about tampering. The Port Authority claims they’re not responsible and point to city-run nets, while admitting their own installations have already ensnared 50 birds needing urgent care. Advocates are demanding immediate removal of young birds before more tragedies unfold. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
