The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Its common name is derived from the French word passager, meaning "passing by", due to the migratory habits of the species.
- The scientific name also refers to its migratory characteristics.
- The morphologically similar mourning dove was long thought to be its closest relative, and the two were at times confused, but genetic analysis has shown that the genus Patagioenas is more closely related to it than the Zenaida doves.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Passenger pigeon article was read about 410,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 90 and blocks with 100: each hit it takes is cut by 40 %.
