Legendary game show host Bob Barker is putting his mouth where his money is.
Barker - the former host of "The Price is Right" - released a video plea to the Pennsylvania legislature to pass a bill ending live pigeon shoots which he described as "barbaric acts."
In the video - which contains graphic images - Barker describes how tens of thousands of birds are slaughtered each year during the shoots in which they are typically launched from metal boxes and shot at close range.
In 2010 Barker announced he would donate $1 million to the anti-animal cruelty group SHowing Animals Respect and Kindness (SHARK) which has been protesting the shoots.
