That’s in the wild.

Pigeon pets can live past 20 years. One of mine died at 12; the one I have now is going strong at about 14.

Actually, I had mixed feelings when the homing pigeon died; he was never happy - he was a rescue and had flown; and I got him too late.

The feral, gotten before fledging, is a jolly guy, and I’m convinced he wants to beat the 20-year mark.
