Answer:

Dear Thrinadh, its not that pigeons do not live in forests. But, some of their species have adapted to live alongside humans, away from the forests which we commonly observe.

This may be due to certain advantages like-

1. Lack of competition, as you'll anytime find a larger lot of birds competing for both habitat and food in forests as compared to cities.

2. Reduced predation in cities.

This would have been made obvious to you by the every increasing pigeon population in cities. So, it can be said that pigeons have been successful to a greater extent in adapting themselves to live with the urban populations in comparison to any other bird species.

But just to mention, a few forest living pigeon species
