TIL that a town near Ravenna is being invaded by peacocks

They apparently enjoy vandalizing cars

Good luck explaining that to the insurance company 🥴

Seems harmless to me. The poor thing was just looking in the "mirror" 🪞🦚

They are loud and, for those at various private homes, can be pushy & territorial, it seems.

Are these a wild roving band of Gypsy peacocks & peahens? 😉

@Elessar They’re generally not very friendly. Beautiful, but from a safe distance.

Knowing they're not indigenous there, do they know where they escaped from?

Was there already an existing feral / released population of them in Italy?

@Elessar oh that does go back awhile then

What are the most prominent invasive species in Italy today? Does it differ between the north and the south?

@SW-User Birds, I've no idea; wels catfish for sure are problematic tho

@Elessar Don't you just love the reckless biological abandon of humans?
