we found a pigeon with an injured wing today and don't know where to bring him. recently moved to basel and i don't know any vets or stations here, and the ones that i found by googling are either closed or don't take pigeons.

also what can i do to make it more comfortable for him? we put him in a carton with a blanket and gave him a lid filled with water

  2. Pigeons (at least the one you pictured) are not very popular and are more of a pest than anything else.

    It‘s commendable that you care, but quite frankly you‘ll have difficulty finding someone who is willing to spend time and money on a pigeon.

    Also beware, pigeons are very homey. If a pigeon decides the place where you live is it‘s home, you can‘t ever get rid of it again. They ALWAYS find a way back. For generations.

  3. Maybe you could call a birds center (centre d’ornithologie in French)

  4. Depends of your location, maybw a local vogelwarte, what happens with the bird?

  5. Schutz & Rettung Zürich (Einsatzleitzentrale) call them, they help with injured or abandoned animals.
