And, BTW, Squirrels are great in a stew or done like Buffalo wings, best after a good mast (acorn) season. Dadoc

Solution: $.25 per carcass bounty, no questions asked. Gamma the carcasses, process, sell at profit for cat food. Give each homeless a burlap bag & used golf club. $25.00 per carcass bounty for every dumbass who scavenges dumpsters for chicken, rice, etc., to feed an annoying & useless biomass. $500 bounty for carcass of pigeon lady of 14th & 1st & 19th betw 2nd & 3rd who keeps feeding the damned rats (not the rats with wings, the real rats on 14th & 1st). Deterrents do not work. DO NOT POISON. Kills the predators like the red-tails. And the term is CANADA geese, not Canadian Geese. And they taste like crap, produce loadsa crap, carry Giardia, and are generally annoying. Already overloaded all the waters of Central Park with nitrates, urea & Organics, killing lotsa other cool animals. Control & management, not coddling nor eradication is the key to a cooler place.

Babyhitler....LMAO! Why don't they just get that guy who beat to death the baby geese? He was just unfocused, thats all (although, if he went to Clarence, NY, they'd give him a medal, there's more Canadian Geese than people there).

Does anyone know if the city has ever tried birth control for pigeons? Seriously. It's been tried with squirrels in other places. You plant the BC in the feed, and bingo -- infertile creatures.

we all know how this will turn out. First the robohawks kill pigeons, then rats, then they are programmed to kill criminals but then someone gets hold of skynet and the robohawks get super AI and decide to enslave humanity battery pods in a post apocalyptic world.

they are slow birds who taste everything on the ground and aren't afraid of humans. Scatter some birdseed and scoop them up in a net. Dispose at your discretion.

Just tell the cops that the pigeons might have guns.

Just how much will it take to rid the city of its huge pigeon problem? Let's rid the city of its politician problem first.

fairway harlem placed a fake owl on a rafter over their front entrance, complete with a soundtrack of hoots. not sure if this is to scare away shitting pigeons or hungry rats who may try to get the "Outside" produce...

why not bring in real hawks? Robohawks are putting real hawks out of work. I bet they're made in China, too!

oh wait, they're rare birds...why not paint a bunch of pigeons to look like those hawks?

anyone feeding those rats with wings should have to come to my apartment and lick my terrace clean from all the bird shit.
