Peacocks are being poached for their meat and feathers

Did you know that peacocks are being poached for their meat and feathers?

Yes, of course!

It is illegal to poach peacocks but still the poachers manage to poach the poor peacocks secretly without anyone knows. They poach the peacocks for their meat and feathers. Isn’t it cruel?

As the poachers don’t want the feathers of the peacock to become bloody, they break the unfortunate peacock's legs. Then they take away the peacock's feathers.Then they kill it. Horrid, isn’t it! And the poor peacock must be having lots of pain. Isn’t it extremely cruel?

And to make things worse farmers are using pesticides in their fields. As the peacock eats the grains that are coated with pesticide the unlucky peacock gets poisoned and dies. Poor peacocks!

With all this the population of peacocks is dwindling. Very sad, isn’t it? And the peacock is the national bird of India and it is getting extinct.

Who would like to see these beautiful birds getting extinct?
