Have you ever heard of pigeon racing? Thousands of birds are released at the same time and they often fly more than 1,000 kilometres in less than a day. Animal Kingdom 👉 trt.world/Anima... #pigeons #pigeon #PigeonRacing
I am a grandmother and I live in the USA and I raise white king pigeons, but I don’t follow that sport. My 6 pigeons are spoiled and have the best living accommodations and food and I just enjoy them every day. They are calm, social, intelligent and beautiful creatures that enjoy their home with me.❤️❤️🕊🕊🕊

I had a racing pigeon land in my yard way out in the country and he lived with me for two weeks, the most beautiful and intelligent bird, he would show off his speed skills to me , I had a little roosting nest for him where he slept every night and he would walk around all day. I think he just wanted to chill and not race anymore. Unfortunately I found his feathers one morning and he was gone. Either a snake or coyote got him. Still miss him. RIP Randy
My grampa and his brothers used to race them from Tennessee back to Cleveland Ohio. It is amazing they can fly right back to a loft on top of a garage in the middle of Cleveland, always found their way home. Kind of crazy. They raced greyhounds too. My uncle at the track, my Gramp liked the woods where they treed raccoons. Some old school stuff. Guess before internet people just raced stuff? 😅😂
There is a racing pigeon staying at my home right now. We've being trying to feed the bird and leave water for it. Contacted the owner and it's from Canada. Owner said it's probably resting. It's beautiful! It's been there for days. How long do they rest? Not sure if it will win any race lol
I read a pigeon that was sold for over 1 million € from the Drudge Report, then I came here. I went to Belgium twice people are friendly there, where the sport originated but had never heard about the sport before. I will look at pigeons in a different way now. Thank you for the video.
nice video ... My grandfather had and my father have pigeons for genarations now and we have some badass pigeons in our village in some mountains they fight everyday with predators hawks etc and still alive ... i think i should see this hobby more professional :)
I'm here because I picked up an injured racing pigeon when out on a walk today. The owner explained it was a racing pigeon when he came to pick it up. I had no idea but a pigeon that looked like that just doesn't exist in our area, so it really stuck out. Plus it wasn't flying away from us.
When I was 13 my father took me dove hunting. A dove came flying over at lightning speed and I took aim and lead him a bit, pulled the trigger and got him. Walked over and realized it was a pigeon with a band around its leg. I sure hope I didn't execute someone's 6 figure bird. Edit: Creepy animal lovers in the comments below. I grew up on a farm and respect animals. We hunted to fill the freezer and feed the family. It was not for sport. I was a young boy when this incident occurred and made a mistake. These people replying are absolutely nuts.
You my friend are bragging about killing an earth s inhabitant that you didn't t creste . Its ignorance and speciesm that makes you do revolting things and feel its ok . Your gather jusy got the lousy father of yhe year award gor teaching you the art of killing . You teach children to love animals not killed them. Sorry for the little dove but much more sorry for the two of you!
Its ignorance and speciesm that make you do revolting things to sentient beings . Your father just got the lousy father of the year award for introducing you to the art of killing other beings.i feel sorry for the little dove but much more sorry for you two idiots
It might not have been worth that much money, but it was still somebody's pet! I hope whoever was its owner expected to lose a pet pigeon, else you really ruined someone's year.

I found a white pigeon in my backyard it has a green band around his leg the name is JEDDS it belongs to a AU racing organization the pigeon is hurt what should i do?
Angel moreno I imagine you have already sorted this situation but in case anyone else was wondering. If you find an injured bird it is best to contact a local wildlife rehabilitation center ideally one for birds specifically. They will care for it and will be able to contact the owner if it happens to be a pet. Place injured birds in a dark quiet place and cover them with a towel when picking them up to avoid stress and confusion.
Adam N yeah it was hiding in my backyard i was wondering what it was doing there till i picked it up and saw it had a slash on his chest and i cured it and fed him and the next day he ate and we put him outside to see if he would fly away and he ended up leaving :))) thankyou
Angel moreno That’s great. Glad to hear you cared for him and he was able to fly away! Always nice to see people who care about birds, especially pigeons which are often under appreciated.
Well someone's losing a lot of money on the racing pigeon perched in my backyard binging on our chicken food and waiting for the ribs to come off the BBQ, I'll offer him a beer next. He's not going to get home anytime soon and if he does, he's gonna have a hangover.
Thanks to Dr S Radebe of Samuel Lofts for introducing the Pigeon Race and breeding platform to me. Many thanks to Dr S Radebe of Samuel Lofts in South Africa.
Tbh European pigeon racing is very cruel because the live up to 3-5 years old because if the bird doesn't preform it gets killed😅😢 but here in south Africa they live up to 15 - 30 years because we don't just care for them we love our pigeons ❤😊
Farhad haidar shahi those birds are like dogs they have an inbuilt gps and ravel many miles using the magnetism of the planet research found they distinguish and know who are your childten and parents among 50 people by association in your face features. They know more about you than you think. Their waste is the best fertilizer in the world. And they are the most beautifull animals to work with if you keep them as pets. RACING THEM IS ATROCIOUS ABUSE ON ANIMALS. Good lord don t do it
I’m glad you posted this comment-I just found a racing pigeon with a broken wing that I was told that they would likely euthanize it if it even made it back so he’s my bird now

Fascinating... Ha, I adopted a juvenile pigeon I found who’s parents will get shot as pests, and I was not aware how intelligent and beautiful these animals are. With all the stigma, they looks like cockroaches sometimes but that’s not fair to them, they’re brilliant. Man, those people are fools, why not give that money they spent on that bird to the starving and uneducated people in China?
