Charles and his brothers were rescued by the Sanctuary from a farmer that was selling his property and had decided to shoot the peacocks. We immediately offered to take four, and were shocked to receive them tied up in brown canvas sacks with only their heads poking out.
We set them free around the property, and you can now see them poking through the bush or jumping off the roof, flapping their wings and huge tails behind them. Sadly, our fourth peacock passed away recently, so Charles spends his days wandering alone, looking in on the chickens and ducks and sunning himself wherever there is long grass.
