Little Green Pigeon

Little Green Pigeon and the National Pigeon Advocacy Association (NPAA) are creating a kinder future for millions of pigeons across the UK. We work with councils to replace pigeon culls with humane population management, educate veterinary professionals, support wildlife rehabilitators through Harper’s Fund, and establish Pigeon Pantries to provide free food and supplies. We also challenge harmful myths by teaching the public that pigeons are abandoned domestic animals deserving compassion, not pests. Finally, we campaign to end pigeon racing, a hidden blood sport. Together, we can change how pigeons are treated—but we need your support to make it happen.

Why We Need to Love Pigeons

Why We Need to Love Pigeons – Sue Joyce – Little Green Pigeons

Sue begins by helping the audience understand the different types of pigeons found in the UK — distinguishing between wild and domestic birds. She invites light audience participation with a bit of fun, encouraging everyone to try mimicking pigeon coos and calls.

The tone then shifts as Sue explains the reality of pigeon racing: its hidden cruelty, the widespread exploitation involved, and the urgent need to ban the practice in the UK. Through facts, stories, and compassion, she challenges perceptions and inspires action for these misunderstood birds.
