"*UPGRADED to Rare White Dove! Hold W to fly around.*"

The **Pigeon** is a tier 2 Land animal in Mope.io, and is equivalent to the Rabbit, Trout, Desert Chipmunk and Arctic Hare. The common Pigeon and its more powerful variant, the **White Dove**, were both released in the "*Toucan and Pigeon!*" update on June 19, 2018.

## Technical

* Upgrades from Mouse, Shrimp, Desert Rat or Chipmunk at 150 XP.
* Upgrades to Mole, Chicken, Crab, Penguin, or Meerkat at 400 XP.
* The Pigeon can eat berries, carrots, honeycomb, plankton, dates, and small meat. Prey of the Pigeon includes all animals at tier 1 (Mouse tier).
* Predators of the Pigeon are all animals within the range of tier 3 to tier 9 (Chicken to Cheetah).
* The Special Ability of the Pigeon is to Fly; it takes to the skies for as long as `W` is held or right-clicked, but automatically stops flying after a while.
* The Passive Ability of the Pigeon is Climbing on trees and hills. On trees, the Pigeon is considerably slower than on low ground and hills.
* There is a 10% chance the player will spawn as a species of the common Pigeon, the Rare White Dove instead. Aside from its special ability mechanics, all of the above points apply to the White Dove.
	+ White Doves are 20% faster than Pigeons on land, and fly 30% faster. They also land faster.

## Appearance

### Gold Trim

The Gold Trim Pigeon possesses all of the regular Pigeon's features. However, it has golden eye-lining instead of white, and dark-golden wingtips with gold borders. This pigeon skin also has outlined shoulder blades and a golden beak.

### Pigeon (Classic/#GoldenAge)

The Pigeon keeps a consistent shade of blue across its entire body, with the exception of its slightly lighter head. The Pigeon's wings have tips that are black with white outlines. The Pigeon has a grey-ish beak that leads into a white mark on its face. In typical mope.io fashion, the Pigeon has big, beady eyes, though it is the only animal other than Falcon with visible eye sockets. The Gold Trim Pigeon has gold wingtips, gold eye sockets, gold wing outlines, and a gold beak outline.

### White Dove (Classic/#GoldenAge)

The White Dove has a relatively similar appearance to the regular Pigeon, except its body is white. Its body is a snowy white, and its wings are a darker white, almost very light gray. Each wing has a streak of snowy white on them. Its beak is very much the same as regular Pigeon.

## Strategy

* Most of the strategies used as a Mouse also apply to Pigeons; the player can level up quickly by farming food sources.
	+ Namely, berries; many of them can be found at Berry Bushes, but another way to produce them is to send water pods into a brown mushroom by pressing `S`.
	+ A risky strategy is to farm carrots and berries from brown or red mushrooms in the mud. Since Pigeons are slow in mud patches, the player must watch out for Pigs and Chickens, and fly away by holding `W` if those predators come close.
	+ Furthermore, the player can also gain XP via honeycomb from a Beehive. Avoid the bees by flying away from them and do not touch the Beehive itself; wait for a medium- or high-tier animal to attack the beehive and scavenge the honeycomb that will come from that.
* At this tier, prey is not worth chasing, but if a Mouse or other animal that is on low health is in sight or easy to eat, the player can use the Pigeon's "Fly" ability to catch up to the prey and kill it.
* As a White Dove, all of the above strategies apply. However, note that some players may attack White Doves more frequently than a common Pigeon due to its rarity.
	+ White Doves land faster than Pigeons. Keeping this in mind, the player can dive like a mini Falcon to bite predators' tails. However, trying to bite a predator's tail is often hard to do without being damaged, and will need to be done multiple times to level up.
