Mourning doves and other migratory birds are a national resource protected under the MigratoryBird Treaty Act. The mourning dove is the most hunted migratory game bird in North America, and dove hunting is a popular sport in many parts of this country. Federal and State regulations help ensure that. Injured pigeons. If you are pigeon shooting, then the quickest option is to shoot the injured bird again while it’s on the ground.

United States[edit]
As of 2013 the population of upland game birds such as pheasants had been falling in agricultural states such as Iowa where increased commodity prices for crops such as corn had resulted in reductions in game habitat in acreage set aside in the Conservation Reserve Program. A significant reduction in the number of hunters over the previous 20 years was also reported.[3]
