In the capital of Thailand came into force a law banning the feeding of pigeons in all 50 districts of the city. In public areas of Bangkok have already appeared warning signs in Thai, Chinese and English.

For violation of the law to local residents and foreign visitors are threatened by punishment in the form of imprisonment for a term not exceeding 3 months or a fine of 25 thousand baht. Bangkok authorities introduced the ban to prevent the spread of infectious diseases, vectors of which are the “flying rats”.

Thus the mayor of the Thai capital, Asawin Kwanmuang said that the administration does not seek to strictly prosecute offenders. The authorities want to use the promotion to draw people’s attention on the real threat from pigeons, said the mayor, writes turizm.ru. Feeding the pigeons is prohibited in another major city in Thailand – Chiang Mai.

Moreover, similar bans worldwide. For example, can be fined for the bread thrown to the birds in some districts of Paris in the Central areas and squares of Venice, Florence, Geneva, London, Helsinki.
