/ 100
Mixed
Pigeons can reach a speed of 100 km/h in two seconds.
Infact verdict: Mixed (45/100).
The claim that pigeons can accelerate to 100 km/h in two seconds is not supported by strong evidence. The available web evidence suggests that pigeons have impressive acceleration capabilities, but specific claims about reaching 100 km/h in two seconds are not corroborated by authoritative sources. The Wikipedia entry mentions pigeons' aerodynamic design and muscle power, but does not confirm the exact speed and time. Therefore, the claim is likely exaggerated or misleading.
