Peacock conservation in Bihar

Patna, Oct 10 2007: The peasants and farmers of a village in Bihar are spearheading a movement to save the country's national bird, the peacock. About 50 years ago Shiv Kumar Singh and Chandrika Singh, residents of the village, had bought a pair of peacocks from a local fair and since then their number has increased to nearly 200.

Of late, the government has acted on this issue and plans to take some stern steps in order to protect the national bird.
