  5. I'm really concerned about something I read recently regarding pigeons and lung health. It mentioned that pigeons can cause lung disease, including bronchitis and lung infections. Could you explain how this happens? Do pigeons release some kind of acid that's harmful to us when we breathe in? I'm just trying to understand why this might trigger such issues with our lungs.
