Description
The Victoria crowned pigeon is found in the lowland and swamp forests of northern New Guinea and surrounding islands. It was formerly hunted for meat and feathers. It is now considered endangered. Trapping of pigeons to be kept alive for captive collections is now illegal, but is still likely to be occurring. The Victoria crowned pigeon (Goura victoria) is a large, bluish-grey pigeon with elegant blue lace-like crests and red eyes.
