Australia to kill pigeon that survived 8,000-mile journey from Oregon

Australian officials plan to kill a racing pigeon that survived a gruelling 8,000-mile, two-month journey across the Pacific from Oregon over fears that it may be carrying coronavirus.

Fuck sake.
It flew all that way from Alabama, so it could have sex with a non relative.
Now the seriously inbred bureaucracy wants to kill it.

Death row for illegal migration?

So it quarantines itself for 2 months and they think it has Covid.

The world has gone insane.

Thats all bullshit. Its just a normal pigeon. Wont kill ya,
Dont raise its kids in a pouch or hop around, dont have a mouthful of teeth and always pissed off. Not a spider that eats birds.not a poisonous frog, not a deadly snake. Not dangerous in any way. That poor peaceful bird would never fit in in upsidedown land anyways

All the nasty shit that birds carry, I think Corona Chan might be the least of their worries.

I think I heard skwerl coughing in the park the other day. I think i had a mouse die from the Rona too, I smashed it with broom, the Rona swooped in and stole its life away, or complications with the Rona anyway.

Couple of thoughts.
1st - At 8,000 miles off course, its safe to say this is not a particularly good homing pigeon.
2nd - How many birds are hitching rides on cargo ships?

Well, I mean technically they are birds, but we call them "sky rats." Its the same reason Tuna fish can spread bird flu.
