Racing Pigeons Are Feathered Pit Bulls.

So PETA, in a back handed way, is alleging that Mike Tyson is the new Michael Vick when it comes to racing hand raised pigeons. Being a native Brooklynite I have only heard of pigeon hobbyists tying colored bands to a pigeon's leg, letting them fly in other racing pigeon flocks and taking an opponent's band as a trophy. I believe I may have heard of racing a la Point A to Point B, but I thought that wasn't practiced anymore for lack of popularity. Is Iron Mike feeding anabolics and using parakeets as training birds for the racing pigeons? Is there a racing pigeon enthusiast in the house who can either back up or debunk PETA's allegations?
