Racing pigeon - $ 1.9 million
A pigeon, or rather a two-year-old dove named New Kim, was put up for auction at the Pipa Pigeon Center at a starting price of $ 230. During tense trading, the price tag increased eight thousand times. The happy owners of the fast bird were Chinese buyers under the pseudonyms Super Duper and Hitman. The first of them in 2019 forked out for another record holder: he paid $ 1.4 million for a four-year-old pigeon Armando. This generosity is no coincidence: in recent years, the popularity of pigeon racing has skyrocketed in China. At the same time, usually at auctions, males are more expensive than females, so the final price tag of New Kim amazed the experts.
