Animal rights group PETA has rescued three pigeons from King Charles' Sandringham estate, claiming that pigeon racing can be deadly, particularly in long-distance races. PETA purchased the birds and sent them to a sanctuary in Wales, renaming them Vera, Cliff, and Dover. The group called for the monarch to end any association with pigeon racing, while the Royal Pigeon Racing Association stated they prioritize the health and wellbeing of racing pigeons and oppose the claim that pigeon racing is cruel.
