Just got back from a cruise. Theres a shite pile of doves in st. maarten, st thomas, and naussau. If I lived down there, I'd be eating dove wrapped in bacon every other night

I had buddy in my class who would set up just outside of school with an airsoft gun and pop them. Guns are "illegal" here so he brought that down in his suitcase

Airsoft guns are powerful enough to kill a dove??

They must be, because he told me he killed a slew of them one morning

Yes he claimed it killed them. Now I never saw him kill one, or saw him with a dead one; but that is what he claims.

Caribbean doves only need pepper, they're already salty and garlicky tasting due to the ocean breezes and the historical, spice ships trade winds that they fly through.

Was it a CO2 powered one?

Just got back from st Lucia, shite load of doves there also. I noticed that along with the typical "coo" sound that doves here make they also make almost a chirping sound that I've never heard from doves here.

I always figured it was CO2 powered, but he never told me either way. Just said he had an airsoft gun

If a few coonasses moved down there, the doves would be extinct

If I had a gun or my bow, I could eliminate all these damn goats too. These things run wild everywhere. I would eat the shite out of that.

Are the doves revered or despised? In other words, would people be upset with the killin of them?

They don't seem to mind the doves. They don't mind any animals here really. They let the goats run wild in the streets and the cows come on campus and shite in the main yard in front the school. They feed the pigeons outside the cafeteria. The only animal they do not like is the monkeys. They have homemade traps set up for these things and then they catch them, skin them, and share the meat with the poor people on the island.

Here's a pic of a skinned monkey:

My son kills birds with a CO2 airsoft gun in the neighborhood. Not easy but can be done. I don't think he's ever killed a dove with one though.

I wonder if I got close enough to a squirrel and shot him in the head if that would kill him?? Say for inside city limits type stuff....
