As you know, the OSI model allows layering of protocols in such a manner that services running on upper layers are independent of the transport medium.
Based on this reasoning, D. Waitzman had written RFC 1149 - A Standard for the Transmission of IP Datagrams on Avian Carriers - a scheme to transport IP packets through pigeons.
This excellent proposal had not seem any implementation. Uptil now.
The Carrier Pigeon Internet Protocol Working Group: http://www.blug.linux.no/rfc1149/
Not to be outdone, here's someone who has implemented IP over another innovative medium: Bongo Drums.
