Tangshan: Carrier pigeons were compensated 290,000 yuan for moving.
Beijing, Sept. 23 (Xinhuanet)-Pigeons from Zhang Shuqin, a carrier pigeon farmer in Tangshan, will move into a new home. She said: "In order to move, these homing pigeons received compensation of more than 290,000 yuan."
The homing pigeons in Zhang Shuqin are very famous locally. Her pigeons can get good results in the competition every year, so many people sign contracts with her and put carrier pigeons in her foster care. Many young pigeons that take part in the homing pigeon competition in Tangshan every year are hatched from here.
According to Zhang Shuqin, homing pigeons can use the change of the earth's magnetic field to find their home. When the magnetic field changes, the pigeon nest will also change. It takes more than half a year for homing pigeons to change their nests. February to June is the best season to hatch pigeons every year. If you move, many pigeons will not hatch because of the change of environment.
The Taipingzhuang village where Zhang is located will implement the project of transforming bungalows into buildings. In February this year, a demolition order was sent to Zhang Shuqin, which did not involve the compensation for the loss of pigeons that could not hatch normally within six months after they adapted to the new environment. Zhang Shuqin said that after the relocation, homing pigeons could not hatch and train normally, so she could not "deliver the goods" on schedule. According to the contract, she has to compensate her adoptive parents for more than 65,438+10,000 yuan. In July this year, Tangshan lunan district Real Estate Development and Management Corporation, which undertook the building renovation project, submitted an application for adjudication to Tangshan House Demolition Office. After twice coordination by Tangshan Demolition Office, the two parties reached an agreement that lunan district Real Estate Development and Management Corporation should compensate Zhang Shuqin for the building compensation worth more than 2 1 1,000 yuan, as well as the pigeon house relocation fee and the loss of more than 80,000 yuan during the six-month adaptation period.
