That would be very cool. Like giant pheasant I would think. I wonder if the short tailed dog was a DD?

most likely a Cesky Fousek, as the poster features them in other videos he has uploaded

I have a DD that would get those birds in the air. Might be a little out of range, but they’d be flying!

I noticed that the hunters were wearing gators, wonder why?

Looks like a lot of fun, I would definitely be in if the opportunity ever come up. They kinda seem like a cross between a turkey and pheasant.

Seems like turkey hunting methods might be better. Decoy and a peacock call.

Looks like a lot of fun. I guess these are invasive in that area.

I think I would miss a lot of shots because of focusing on the tail, that thing is long

How come we don't have wild Peacocks in Ontario. Guineas seem to be able to survive the cold at least in my yard. How come these birds an peafowl never spreaded in Ontario?
