reasons for opening the screen
1. courtship. Spring is the season for peacocks to lay eggs and reproduce. As a result, the male peacock unfolded its colorful and colorful tail screen, and kept making all kinds of beautiful dance moves to show off his beauty to the female peacock, so as to attract the female peacock. After it succeeds in courtship, it lays eggs and broods with the female peacock.
2. Protect yourself. On the peacock's big tail screen, we can see five-color golden lines, which are scattered with many "eye-shaped spots" which are composed of purple, blue, brown, yellow and red from the inside out. Once an enemy is encountered and it is too late to escape, the peacock suddenly opens its screen, then shakes it "rustling", and many eye spots move along with it. The enemy is afraid of this "multi-eyed monster" and does not rush forward.
3. Be frightened. In the zoo, we often see proud as a peacock. Zoologists believe that the bright red and green costumes and the loud laughter of tourists can stimulate peacocks and arouse their vigilance. At this time, proud as a peacock was also a demonstration and defensive action. Anyone who pays attention to observing various natural phenomena will notice that when predators such as eagles and weasels attack hens with chicks, hens will also erect their feathers to fight against the enemy. This action is just a defensive response. The same is true of peacock's opening screen when it is frightened.
