How long does a pigeon live?

Answer 1

<the average pigeon in captivity is from about 8-15 years.>

That's odd- a friend (a farmer) has a pigeon that was hatched in 1978, making it 36 years old. I've known a number of wild pigeons that lived at least into their 20's.

Answer 2

<<Pigeons in the wild usually live to 3 or 4 years age. They are capable of living up to 15 years, however, factors such as disease, lack food and water, and predation from other birds and mammals prevents this.>>
