Why So Many Injured Pigeons?

Have you ever noticed pigeons with missing toes or crippled feet? During my daily walks along the Pismo Beach Pier, I was struck by how many injured pigeons I kept seeing—and I wanted to find out why.

In this episode, we explore the heartbreaking condition known as **"string foot,"** a preventable injury caused by discarded fishing line, thread, human hair, and other string-like materials that become tightly wrapped around birds' feet. What seems like harmless litter can lead to lifelong pain, disability, and even death for these animals.

You'll learn:

• Why so many pigeons on the Pismo Beach Pier have injured feet

• What causes "string foot" and how it affects birds

• Why pigeons are especially vulnerable to entanglement

• Simple actions we can all take to help protect local wildlife

A cleaner pier means a safer home for the birds that share this beautiful coastline with us. Sometimes, the smallest acts of care can make the biggest difference.
