As a fan of one loft races and not a fan of PETA, I have too reluctantly agree with them letting pigeons go at sea should be banned and is cruel, one reason I pulled out of sending to the teneriefe one loft race last year, as I was going to send to it.

i agree in part martin but dont you think the numbers are a bit far fetched
peta are war mungers and love to cause trouble shame they dont spend time doing something usefull

p.s and its amazing what you can do with a cammera these days dpnt beileve all you see

fair play to ya martyn...these are extremes in world pigeon racing and do not show our hobby in its true lite...most fanciers that race to their own loft would not dream of putting their birds through this...and the Tenerife is a classic example of how not to do things
