Possibly Aggressive Peacock Remains On The Loose In Montco

LOWER MORELAND, PA — A loose and potentially aggressive peacock remains on the run in Montgomery County Monday after escaping last week.

Police said the peacock escaped from its home near the area of Frederick Road and Robert Road last Thursday.

The peacock "can/may" become aggressive during this time of year," police warned, as April is the peak of its mating season.

Police said they consulted with wildlife experts and they believe the peacock may roam the area for a time, but that it will likely return to its home.

Reports of the loose peacock came from all over the area on Thursday as the animal ran through yards and local streets.
