      Ha The other person would totally pass out as well as the pigeon itself if he could know the message he took too far is just lol!

      Nah, you would think either the pigeon died, or person died. Until some years later, you see that girl again, and say "Oh thought you were dead you bitch". "Left on read" free culture.

    I've watched a few videos. From the ones I've seen the owners actually let the birds out of the home coop during the day.
    This helps them feel free and makes the home coop a stress free location. They train by moving them increasing distance and the bird returns home.
    This makes a very good one way traveler, but they didn't touch on multiple waypoint travel.

  • @benbrown8258

    Very impressive. According to a military expert in the 1990's, natives using pigeons were able to communicate information that could not be intercepted with high tech means. I could see that. You look up and see flocks of birds flying, out of dozens or hundreds, how do you know which bird is a trained pigeon on its way to deliver a message. Destroy all birds? Not feasible or reasonable.

    • @futurehistoryarchaeologist4480

      Sometimes enemy snipers would shoot pigeons traveling in an uncommon direction since it was likely that their home wasn't in a local spot. Still unreliable though.

      ​@@futurehistoryarchaeologist4480lol have you ever tried to shoot a bird flying at 80 mph with a sniper rifle? Theres a pretty much a 0.1 percent chance of actually hitting the thing, thats why shooting birds is done with shotguns. If it was sitting in a tree with a tube on its back then the sniper might have a pop at it.
