Pigeons are common birds and are widely raised all over the world. The dove is also known as the dove of peace. The logo of the "International year of Peace" is the pattern of flying a dove around the hands with an olive branch. It symbolizes peace and friendship. And some friends will be curious, do pigeons protect animals?

Pigeon is the general name of hundreds of birds of the family Pigeonidae. The pigeon we usually talk about is only one of the pigeons, and it is a domestic pigeon. Whether pigeons are protected or not depends on the species. Ordinary domestic pigeons are not protected animals. Among the many pigeon-shaped species, only spotted-tailed forest pigeons are second-class protected animals in the country. But even if other kinds of pigeons are not protected animals, they are worth cherishing.

Pigeons have a long history with human beings. As early as 3000 BC, the Egyptians began to use pigeons to deliver letters. Before the advent of the telegram, the British usually used pigeons to convey the results of football matches. China is also an ancient country of raising pigeons, which has a long history. During the Sui and Tang dynasties, pigeons were used to communicate in Guangzhou and other places in the south of China.

In the painter's works, the pigeon is a symbol of peace. It is said that the first portrait of the peace dove was created by Picasso, the master of the painting. Qi Baishi, a Chinese painter, is also a master at painting pigeons. Especially with freehand melons and fruits, flowers and other backgrounds, pigeons appear more exquisite, miraculous, and pleasing to the eye.

Pigeons have a long history with human beings, and it is also a symbol of peace. It is worth our patience to protect these lovely elves. Today, when environmental changes lead to the mass extinction of species, it is our responsibility to protect the reproduction and continuation of species.
