A South African World Cup stadium has turned to raptors, instead of poisons, to chase out rogue pigeons and rats. The new 46000-seat stadium in coastal Port Elizabeth has several bird and bat boxes under the outer eaves of its petal-shaped roof to draw aerial hunters. The strategy was designed as a harmonious system: The wild raptors hunt and chase away feral pigeons, eliminating the slovenly birds' nests and droppings which attract rats. |
