What’s good about the pigeons at the zoo, at our zoo is they’re pure white. And if you look at pigeons, as we look at pigeons in the movies, either in the fountain in Rome or in the streets of Jakarta, or in other cities, they’re any color like the original rock pigeon of Europe. They were there when I began. There was a pigeon law for them, and it was, they were all white. And the procedure that the supervisor before me had done is he trapped the pigeons periodically when the population got too great. And at the same time, he would eliminate any of the ones that were not pure white, ’cause there were very few other wild pigeons in Honolulu. There were very, there was a small population down on the docks that ate the grain that was spilled from the shipping of the cattle. But we had almost all of the source of all the pigeons.
