FILE – In this April 27, 2017 photo, a pack of peacocks mill about at an intersection in the Coconut Grove neighborhood of Miami. Peacocks could soon be on the outs in some Miami-Dade neighborhoods after the county commission agreed to loosen a law protecting the birds. The 20-year-old law still protects peacocks from harm, but commissioners agreed Tuesday, Feb. 1, 2022, to allow cities to opt out of the rules if they present appropriate plans to humanely remove the divisive birds from areas where they’re not wanted.
