ANSWERS TO GO with Susan Smith
ANSWERS TO GO with Susan Smith
Q. I started visiting the San Marcos City Cemetery when I was searching for uncrowded places to walk. I always see deer and squirrels. Recently, I happened on a peacock there. Its bright tail feathers were dragging so far behind its body. It made me wonder if peacocks have been changed by selective breeding? Or are they the product of a natural process? 05/24/2020 12:00 AM
