Communal peacock shot and killed after hit taken out on Craigslist

“It’s really sad because he probably suffered for at least two or three hours before he died, possibly more,” a resident said.

So, it took a village to whack the bird?

I could be wrong, but I think peacocks (and pea hens) are not native to Humboldt County. All the same, if it was a nuisance, it should have been handled more mercifully.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

Peacocks are annoying vermin, like Liberace's rats.

Are they as bad as Canadian Geese? Those things will cover surrounding areas with goose crap in an amazingly short time. I call them Canadian Crap Factories.

Peacocks are loud as hell. And they have no schedule like a rooster. They scream all the time.
Read about an upscale neighborhood that had about 20 of them living there wild.
Same story as always. Somebody bought a few for the beauty and they escaped and went feral.
The noise was intolerable to the point where it was affecting property values.
Did not see the follow up article. So I never found out how they solved the problem.
Doubt it was a Craigslist hitman though ...
