  1. Columba livia decreases mitochondrial free radical production in C. livia (2-4 times lower).

    “mitochondrial free radical production was 2-4 times lower in pigeon than in rat tissues”

    Low mitochondrial free radical production per unit O2 consumption can explain the simultaneous presence of high longevity and high aerobic metabolic rate in birds
