First Thanks Shirley for bringing this this up, I am sure it was not your intent....second to may "rings" and "collars", I get confused...So Capicola Ring-necked Dove) retains it's place as a separate species correct and is a viable exotic for those who keep state exotic species lists ??:-)...That is of course unless Eurasian Collared take a shine to them here...Jack allows this genus tends to slept around a lot...I am not in a position to dispute that, but I never noted it when I had the two former species in captivity. -- Brush Freeman Independent and affiliated Field Biologist 361-655-7641 http://texasnaturenotes.blogspot.com/ Finca de los Alacranes., Utley,Texas
