This is how pigeons have broken feet.

15/11/2025 by A learning buddhist...

It is not only the pigeons have broken feet, the mynahs as well. I believe many birds in the wild suffer the same fate.

The photo below shows how human hair coiled around the pigeon’s foot and it was already broken but still hanging on by the hair.

I couldn’t catch her and I didn’t see her again.

The mynah has lost her feet.

These birds are gentle and harmless. There is really no need to cause harm to them. Since there are ways to handle them humanely, always make a wise and compassionate choice. Killing is never necessary.

It is already not easy for humans to thrive, let alone animals. If we can’t help them, at least don’t hurt them! Always choose to be kind. Let’s learn to coexist with one another.

  • “Bhikkhus, dwell with yourselves as an island, with yourselves as a refuge, with no other refuge; with the Dhamma as an island, with the Dhamma as a refuge, with no other refuge. ~ SN 22.43

  • “Enough, Vakkali! Why do you want to see this foul body? One who sees the Dhamma sees me; one who sees me sees the Dhamma. For in seeing the Dhamma,Vakkali, one sees me; and in seeing me, one sees the Dhamma.” ~ SN 22.87

  • A place to discover and explore the discourses of the Buddha.
  • I highly recommend reading the sutta translated by Piya Tan. His "Laymen Saints" has been an inspiration to many lay people.
  • Support coexistence with birds!
