The wild
rock dove is an endangered species because most have visible mixtures of pigeon blood.

Cytologic evaluation of fine-needle aspirates from a seminoma has been reported in a
rock dove (11); however, cytologic differentiation of seminomas from other testicular tumors may be a diagnostic challenge (28) and histologic evaluation is necessary.
There was a reverse for Sir Mark Prescott and Seb Sanders in this event with hot-shot Straw Bear being beaten into third, but the pair had earlier been on the mark with
