A Las Vegas animal rescue group has raised concerns over a viral video showing pigeons wearing small cowboy hats in a car park.
It’s unclear who was behind the stunt, but activists including the Lofty Hopes group, were concerned that the hats may have been glued on, harming the birds.
The stunt has been criticised by animal welfare advocates.
