Helder Rodrigues from "Taking on Tyson" stars in the Animal Planet reality docu-series.
A perfectionist who lives to work, Helder Rodrigues is a 21 year old who is unlike any of his peers—his primary focus is racing pigeons. Ever since his mentor Vinnie Torre first introduced him to the world of competitive pigeon racing, Helder's fascination with the sport quickly turned to obsession. Helder still has a lot to learn and struggles to balance the start of the bird-race season, exams and his personal life while still participating in races.
