It was really unfortunate. I think sadly the torchbearers probably felt pretty locked in and just followed through. Perhaps they assumed the doves would fly away. Regardless I believe that real doves stopped being used shortly after this ceremony!
Sky rats. Nothing of value lost.
Gulls are pretty cool.
Pigeons are probably worst
Those poor birds are gonna have lung cancer because of a dude in a silly hat.
Wait 'til the pigeon pope hears about this; pope wars, all over again.
/ very poopy pope wars.
