Pigeon dyed pink for gender reveal party dies after being found starving in park

A pigeon who was found malnourished and dyed pink for a gender reveal party has died, according to officials.

The bird, named Flamingo because of its bright pink colour, was purchased at a poultry market for a gender reveal party in Madison Square Park, New York, US, on January 30.

The Wild Bird Fund rescued the bird and took him into their care for treatment after they believed the pigeon was dyed deliberately.
