Members of a genus containing two species of blue
or green birds having a train of tail feathers that are
colored a brilliant metallic green, each tipped with
an eyespot that is ringed with blue and bronze.
Peacocks have been kept as ornamental birds for
centuries.
The bird was a symbol of eternal life in the antiquity,
due to the belief that its flesh did not rot.
It has also been a symbol of pride. Traditionally
classified as members of the Phasianidae family, but
scientists now believe that the peafowl and
Phasianidae do not share the same ancestry.
Peafowl and their allies are a very ancient isolated
group with no near allies; their family is classified
separately as Pavoninidae in some systems.
