White-bellied Imperial Pigeon

Ducula forsteni

The White-bellied Imperial Pigeon is a large, arboreal pigeon found in the forests and woodlands of Southeast Asia. It has a distinctive white belly and underparts, with dark green upperparts and a contrasting white patch on the wings. This species primarily feeds on fruits and seeds, and its large size allows it to play a key role in seed dispersal within its habitat. The White-bellied Imperial Pigeon is known for its deep, resonant calls that echo through the forest canopy. While not currently considered threatened, habitat loss and hunting pose potential risks to its populations.
