Yes, West Nile virus can be lethal to pigeons, although they are generally considered to be less susceptible to severe illness compared to other bird species. Infected pigeons can exhibit symptoms such as lethargy, neurological issues, and reduced coordination, but many may recover without severe consequences. However, the virus can still pose a significant threat to other birds, particularly corvids like crows and ravens, which are more likely to suffer severe outcomes. Overall, while pigeons can contract the virus, the mortality rate is lower than in more susceptible species.
