I suppose if you have a Tetnaus shot handy, and lots of pesonal fortification, you could eat a pigeon. If you catch one of these birds in Sescatuan, it might be ok to eat, if your near a major metro area, You’d be retarded to think it’s ok to eat one of these “rats with wings”.

But hey I’m not a doctor, go for it.

Wiki:

The largest recorded nested bird roast is 17 birds, attributed to a royal feast in France in the early 19th century (originally called a Rôti Sans Pareil, or "Roast without equal") - a bustard stuffed with a turkey, a goose, a pheasant, a chicken, a duck, a guinea fowl, a teal, a woodcock, a partridge, a plover, a lapwing, a quail, a thrush, a lark, an Ortolan Bunting and a Garden Warbler. The final bird is small enough that it can be stuffed with a single olive; it also suggests that, unlike modern multi-bird roasts, there was no stuffing or other packing placed in between the birds. This dish probably could not be legally recreated in the modern era as many of the listed birds are now protected species.

That picture was shot in Europe. Notice the Blue Tit (no giggles, please!) next to that enormous pigeon. Judging from it’s extra-large size and bloated demeanor, it may be a Soviet-era bird. Might be good eatin’, though.
