A man was walking along outside in Hong Kong recently when he noticed something startling: four pigeons were sitting frozen in place, stuck and unable to move, on top of a wall.<\/p>\n
When he examined the situation more closely, he saw that someone had applied 3-foot-long streaks of adhesive along the wall, gluing the poor, unsuspecting animals to the spot.<\/p>\n

Passersby noticed the animal there at both noon and 7pm, trapped in the exact same positions. Apparently, the birds were stuck there for upwards of 7 hours!<\/p>\n
Luckily, kind-hearted strangers decided to intervene and help. Volunteers helped to carefully separate the birds’ legs from the glue, even before animal rescue experts arrived. But sadly, the birds didn’t come away unscathed.<\/p>\n
Their legs seemed to be injured, and their wings and feathers were all matted down, possibly from attempts to fight back against the glue holding them in place.<\/p>\n
The animals were just living their lives, doing their best to survive – and then this happened. It wasn’t their fault.<\/p>\n
It’s not clear if these birds will be able to be fully rehabilitated, and it’s also not clear who did this – or why.<\/p>\n
But we must insist that authorities keep investigating! Sign the petition!<\/p>\n
