Entre as aves mais bem-sucedidas do mundo, os pombos-bravios sao nativos de penhascos costeiros e cavernas da Europa, norte da Africa e sul da Asia, mas foram domesticados ha milhares de anos e introduzidos globalmente em todos os centros urbanos do planeta. Sua excepcional capacidade de orientacao, navegando milhares de quilometros usando campos magneticos, posicao solar e pontos de referencia, os tornou vitais como mensageiros militares e aves de corrida esportiva. Hoje, populacoes assilvestradas habitam todas as grandes cidades do mundo.
