Since birds are highly visible and common animals, humans have had relationships with them since the dawn of man. Sometimes, these relationships are mutualistic, like the cooperative honey-gathering among honeyguides and African peoples such as the Borana. Birds have been domesticated by humans both as pets and for practical purposes. Colorful birds, such as parrots and mynas, are bred in captivity or kept as pets, a practice that has led to the illegal trafficking of some endangered species. This book studies human interactions with birds including field guide, seawatching, bird food, pigeon keeping, and the American Racing Pigeon Union.
