Peacock trashes liquor store in California to tune of $500
It sounds like the start of a joke: a peacock walked into an off-licence....
But for the owners of a Californian liquor store, the punch line was anything but funny.
This particular peacock - caught on camera by CCTV, customers and bemused shop manager Rani Ghanem - caused $500 (£390) worth of damage after wandering into Royal Oak Liquor Store, Arcadia, on Monday.
Luckily, animal control were eventually able to catch the bird, and it has since been released back into the wild - where it will do a little less damage, hopefully.

Vile creatures. Loud as fuck and shit all over everything. Apparently tasty, though.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

No true Peacock would do such a terrible thing. Pheasants get away with this sort of stuff all the time and nobody seems to give two boots.

The guy with the big net is so funny. Surely this an argument for more hand guns in animal control?

Jack Russell terriers, that's the ticket. Let a couple of those little bastards loose in there, they'll make very short work of it.

A good point. You need something exactly like that, something that can whip a baby out of a buggy and drag into to the woods.laklak wrote:Jack Russell terriers, that's the ticket. Let a couple of those little bastards loose in there, they'll make very short work of it.
