It turns out pigeons may make great cancer detectives.
It's unlikely that you'll see a "Pigeons at Work" sign at the hospital radiology or pathology department anytime soon, but the authors of a new study in the journal PLOS ONE think the birds offer great potential as testers of cancer detection technology and as a help in doctor training. Well, I guess now they don't have to just hang around the street, they can actually get jobs, but wait oh... is this a good or bad thing for humans? Cos if your pigeons can detect cancer, then a human being somewhere will lose his job right? Abi?akwaya? Kwuo? Lol,, well,I guess it's good and bad depending on who is reading.
