PASSENGER PIGEON SÖZCÜĞÜ İNGILIZCE DİLİNDE NE ANLAMA GELİR?
Yolcu güvercinleri
Yolcu güvercin veya vahşi güvercin soyu tükenmiş bir Kuzey Amerika kuşu. Fransız kelimesi pasajörden "geçerek" geçti, bir zamanlar dünyanın en bol kuşu oldu. Kuzey Amerika'daki tüm kuşların dörtte birinden fazlasını oluşturuyordu. Türler, av ve habitat yokedilmesinin ölümüne yol açtığı 20. yüzyılın başına kadar muazzam göç sürülerinde yaşıyordu. 1866 yılında güney Ontario'da bir sürü 1 mil genişlikte ve 300 mil uzunluğunda olarak tanımlandı, 14 saat geçti ve 3,5 milyar kuşu aştı. Bu sayı, doğruysa, muhtemelen o sırada tüm nüfusun büyük bir bölümünü temsil edecektir. Avrupalılar Kuzey Amerika'ya geldiğinde Amerika Birleşik Devletleri'nde 3-5 milyar Yolcu Güvercini tahmin ediyordu. Diğerleri, türlerin Columbus öncesi dönemde yaygın olmadığı görüşündeler ancak Amerikan Hintli nüfusun Avrupa'daki hastalıklarla yıkılması gıda için rekabeti azalttığında sayıları arttı. Türler, 19. yüzyılda dünyadaki en bol kuşlardan biri olmaktan, 20. yüzyılın başlarında yok olma durumuna geçti.
