The racing pigeon is the fastest racing animal and the sport is enjoyed by more than two million fanciers throughout the world. In Australia, many thousands of fanciers compete in races of distances ranging from 50 to 1,200 km. Homing pigeon racing was first developed in Belgium between 1790 and 1870. Homing pigeons were used by the allies in both world wars to carry urgent messages and information. In South Australia approximately 25 races are held each year in the winter and spring months with distances ranging from 200 km to 1,320 km.
