This Internet Request For Comments is titled "A Standard for the Transmission of IP Datagrams on Avian Carriers" and was published on April 1, 1990. Yes, this means sending IP packets with homing pigeons. The experiment was conducted by the Bergen Linux Users' Group in cooperation with Vesta Brevduveforening on April 28, 2001. Ping times varied between 3200 and 6300 seconds (1 - 2 hours).
