    I can’t see how this is any worse than 95% of americans who regularly eat animals. If anything the peacocks probably had a slightly less miserable life before being eaten, compared to an average chicken.

    I’m kinda confused here, so he slaughtered the peacocks like you would a chicken, and then ate them? What did he actually do that warrants being arrested?

      Crazy animal lovers who accord different levels of protections to different animals while munching down on KFC.

    Eating peacocks is a crime in the USA?

      Killing your pet is a crime. It’s weird.
