Yes. Pigeon racing as well! When I was younger one fell in our garden because it had a damaged wing so we looked after it till it healed. My dad called the owner (there were contact details attached to its leg) and he told him that if he did return it he wouldn't have any use for it anymore as it was damaged. It was bittersweet when it did heal and was able to fly away, knowing that it would probably fly back to the owner and to it's death
