飞吧,鸽子!现代仍然有飞鸽传邮。由于受自然条件的限制或者因为气候恶劣,无法把邮件迅速送到与外界隔绝的居民点时,往往利用鸽子传邮。主要是紧急传送药品,但也还另有用途。例如,瑞士就有四万只军用鸽。“军鸽队”的鸽子被训练传送紧急情报和携带微型摄影机从空中拍摄地形。

Fly, pigeons! Flying pigeons still exist in the modern post. Due to natural conditions or because of bad weather, can not send mail quickly to settlements with the outside world, often using pigeons post. Mainly the urgent delivery of drugs, but also still have other uses. For example, there are 40,000 military pigeons in Switzerland. The “pigeon squad” pigeons are trained to transmit the emergency intelligence and carry a miniature camera to shoot the terrain from the air.
