New Research Suggests Pigeons Use Liver's Biological System for Navigation

Kathmandu. New research has pointed towards unexpected conclusions regarding the long-term scientific mystery of how pigeons identify their way home. According to the study, these birds may utilize a biological system related to their liver, in addition to celestial cues or landmarks, for navigation.

Animals generally identify direction using various cues such as stars, landscapes, and the Earth's magnetic field. It has been believed that species like birds, fish, and turtles use the Earth's magnetic field as a natural compass, but its actual biological process is still not fully clear.
