Event Details

Submitted by the Event Organizer

WELCOME BACK! The government has announced that it is safe to handle pigeons without fear of avian flu. The danger is with waterfowl so please do not come if you have been around any waterfowl in the week prior to this event.
WHAT: Every day there are hundreds of pigeons throughout the city of San Francisco who have strings and hair wrapped around their toes so tightly that it causes immense pain. Eventually, their toes lose circulation, become amputated, or develop severe infections. We can help our bird friends by removing the string before it gets too serious, providing medical care, and releasing them back to their flocks!
WHERE: We will be meeting outside the Strand Theater in San Francisco, which is across from the Civic Center Bart Station (see map). The address is 1127 Market St, San Francisco, CA 94103.
WHEN: Sunday, January 15th, 11am-2pm
Contact Alicia from the Animal Care working group with any questions: alicia@dxe.io or 707-671-2752
