It was struggling to live.
KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 3 — An American rescue group is trying to save the life of a domesticated pigeon that was found dyed pink and struggling to live.
The WBF, a nonprofit wildlife rehabilitation and education centre in NYC, believes the pigeon may have been dyed pink for a gender reveal party. After giving the pigeon, now named Flamingo, time to stabilise, the WBF team tried several methods to remove the dye, which they believe is hair dye, with limited success.The team explained that the dye smelled like very strong perfume and because Flamingo is inhaling these fumes that are coming off of the dye all the time, it makes it ill as it was continuously throwing up.
In its latest update, the team posted: “We’ve got Flamingo on heat, oxygen and subcutaneous fluids, and we’ve added medication to counteract the effects of the toxin on his digestive system. Bathing is very stressful for a bird, especially one already weak, so we have to balance intervention with overall stability.”They pleaded to the public never to release domestic birds or other domestic animals to the wild.
“Typically are all white. And so even if he had not been dyed, he would have been a real target for predators in the park.”
