Mike Tyson‘s six episode television series that will run on Animal Planet starting March 2011, “Taking on Tyson,” has caused animal rights activists to demand the show be pulled.
Tyson, a vegan, has responded to the allegations that the sport is cruel to the birds.
“This birds are given water and food everyday. They are medicated so they don’t get sick and have plenty of space,” he said. “They aren’t mistreated.”
