How a Pigeon Became My Pet

A pigeon became my pet in a way called "self-rescue." Domestic pigeons all over the world find new owners in a similar way to my story. Pigeons raised by people know they need people to survive, so if they find themselves lost in the wild they find a nice home and hope the new people take them in. It's almost like they instinctively know who will take good care of them!
