Cool Animal of the Day: The Peacock

Check out the peacock, just flyin’ like a boss. Beautiful as hell. I had no idea they could fly, man. Turns out they can if they’re scared, and I did not know this that day I was attacked by one. When predators appear, the birds start running and fluttering into the air. Surprisingly, the long feathers don’t affect their take-offs. And they can approach speeds of up to 10 mph! Anywho, peacock.
