Justification for EICAT assessment


In urban and suburban areas in the U.S.A., the white-winged dove has been shown to have a significant negative correlation with native mourning dove (Zenaida macroura) and common ground dove (Columbina passerina) populations. They may feasibly be out competing these other two species with their larger body size and increasingly generalist feeding tendencies (Introduced Species Summary Project 2003).
