Peacock and Prairie Dogs

Description:

I took my friend to Boston's Franklin Park Zoo on Saturday. My favorite exhibit was an unintended one. Of animals that would likely not meet in their natural habitats. This peacock was vibrating with display. He shimmied his feathers to make a menacing hissing sound. The zoo wrangler explained that the bird and the p-dogs "have a love-hate relationship, where sometimes they pick off his feathers." Jay

Habitat:

This was very hospitable confined habitat, Franlin Park Zoo.
