Pigeon party: Buckaroo birds vex Vegas

Pigeons are found in almost every city in America, but leave it to Las Vegas to have a unique set of birds that adapt to the climate. Visitors to the Entertainment Capital of the World have noticed hordes of pigeons throughout the city decked out in miniature cowboy hats. Nobody knows why so many pigeons are wearing them, or whoâs responsible, but theyâve been a hit with tourists. Photos featuring the little varmints have gone viral across social media, but not everyone is happy with these fashionable pigeons. Local Animal Control has been working tirelessly to remove the hats out of fear the birds could be harmed. Regardless, Vegas residents are happy to see a bit of the townâs classic cowboy culture making a comeback â even if these birds are all hat and no cattle.

We shouldnât give pigeons such a hard time. Theyâre some of the most adaptable birds around!
