Another danger to the species comes from lead poisoning as they eat the carcasses of deer killed by hunters ( source ).

I’m a big fan of the antelopes, a group that is most commonly associated with Africa but which also occurs in Asia and, if you stretch the term to be cladistically meaningful, Europe and North America.

We immediately get a sense of the pigeons’ abundance, beauty, and danger to human activity. She portrays humans merged with Passenger Pigeons; the images are then framed to look like 19th century calling cards. It’s an effective introduction. This is not that kind of book, as Fuller makes clear from the beginning.
