    The council ordered hundreds to be smashed in Glasgow in the late 90’s.
    There was a doockit in every street. Shame, ruined a lot of hobbies.

    1st I thought oh, some kind of wildlife video,then as soon as saw they're being released in the sky,said oh shit is this a hunting video!?( as I don't wanna see such a thing as I LOVE ANIMALS AND LOVE LIFE!) And it turns out a pigeon race! I can't say much of it as I've gotta admit that I am NOT well educated of that stuff.But as a human & an animal lover, the WORD SPORT should be something HUMANS DO FOR HUMAN KIND ON THEIR WILLS TO COMPETE their athleticism! I am against any horse races ,dog races as they are forced to do so! And very inhumane treatments involved.Some think & say " what are you talking about? They love to run! They are horses!" I always say " yea.If they run when they like to ,not being forced !" And you know what they do to them,whip them! And if they stop making $$ , they often send them to slaughter houses for meats to France & Japan ( my country!). But this...I don't really know how humane ,or inhumane .But ,basic thing is I wish if they don't use any animals at all! But ,again...many people look at pigeons as rats in the sky & kill them! Also, people in general don't think they have souls,or purposes!!! Birds are very intelligent! So...tough to say black or white.Like the gentleman in this footage said it's a poor man sport,isn't it!? How do they know which group won? They must have some tracking devices on them & radars, right!? I think I had seen them before in some documentaries & movies & dramas .Sorry,it was hard for me to totally understand what he was saying as English is my second language & not so good w/ Welsh accent? Though,much much better ,easier to understand than Irish! Lol.Hopefully those pegions are having better lives than pegions in general,or birds in cages all the time( I HATE PEOPLE DOING THAT).

    This was great, I've been looking for "racing pigeon information" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Hansaac Riyliver Scheme - (search on google ) ? Ive heard some incredible things about it and my colleague got amazing results with it.
