Mike Tyson is set to make an appearance on the small screen - the boxing legend will now front a telly show about his love of birds.

The programme, to be aired on Animal Planet early 2011, pits the 43-year-old former pugilist and his birds against the best racing-pigeon owners in New York.

"I may have stopped fighting but I never stopped flying birds," the Daily Star quoted Tyson, as saying.
