Peacock

The peacock, a symbol of beauty and elegance, is best known for its iridescent tail feathers, which males use to attract mates. Native to South Asia, peacocks thrive in forests and grasslands, where they forage for seeds, insects, and small reptiles. Their vivid coloration and elaborate courtship displays make them one of the most admired birds in the world.

Peacocks play an essential role in their ecosystems by controlling insect populations and dispersing seeds. However, habitat loss and hunting have threatened some wild populations. Conservation efforts focus on protecting their natural habitats and raising awareness of their ecological importance.
