A peacock at a Chinese wildlife park died after visitors enticed it with food, plucked its feathers and took selfies as they held it, domestic media reported.
The five-year-old male bird apparently dropped dead after it was manhandled by two groups of tourists at Yunnan Wild Animal Park in China’s south-west, according to the local Metropolitan Times.
“Peacocks are very difficult to get close to unless you entice it with food,” a park employee, named as Bai, told the newspaper.
