Child miners try to sneak out diamonds from African mines using homing pigeons

Msizi is afraid of getting caught. He is 13 years old, sitting cross-legged in the red dust and white sand outside a diamond mining town on Southern Africa s Atlantic coast. In his lap he holds a pigeon. The bird s name is Bartholomew, and he coos as the child strokes it with his one good hand. Msizi works in the De Beers diamond mines and he uses his bird to smuggle out illicit gemstones. The child coughs up blood. Diamond dust is embedded in the pink muscle tissue of his lungs. For the rest of his life, short or not, he will have difficulty breathing.

Are Horses More Useful to Humans Than Pigeons? And Other Letters to the Editor

Are Horses More Useful to Humans Than Pigeons? And Other Letters to the Editor Credit.Kim Ludbrook/European Pressphoto Agency April 2, 2021 To the Editor: In Nate Blakeslee’s mostly favorable review of Matthew Gavin Frank’s “Flight of the Diamond Smugglers: A Tale of Pigeons, Obsession, and Greed Along Coastal South Africa” (March 21), Blakeslee writes, in reference to pigeons, that “no other animal aside from the dog has been as useful to humans.” Really? I daresay that in a contest between pigeons and horses as to usefulness to humans, the horse would win by several strides. Michael Golden To the Editor:
