title: [Measures for the solution of animal welfare and hygiene problems concerning dogs and pigeons in a large city].
abstract: The concentration of dove populations frequenting certain inner urban areas provokes many protests. Instead of recent use of poison and chemicals for suppression of reproduction now the doves are forced to leave their preferred urban areas by an educational campaign which should initiate a drastical reduction of feeding. Pollution of city parks and closed traffic pedestrian zones with dog excrements activated an initiative of mothers, the municipal administration and dog's societies in order to convince dog holders of cleaning up their dogs' products immediately.
