SINGAPORE - Close to 30 pigeons, many of them dead or unconscious, were found on the grass patch and in common areas between Block 438 and Block 436 in Yishun Avenue 11 last Monday evening.
“It’s very sad and inhumane to see not just a few, but about 20 dead birds lying around where people are walking around, some with their pets, and with cats and children around. It’s not safe,” said Ms Aishah, who is an administrative executive. The town council representative added that cleaners were given a verbal warning to be more alert during such operations so that missed carcasses do not pose a danger.
“Many times, we have observed these birds falling prey to other animals, or drowning in drains or canals, or dying from being cold for too long.” She added that AC could be mixed into food bait fed to the pigeons, as the rescue team has observed rice and bread being thrown by pigeon control operators.
