Build cage to specs. There are 2 reasons to use plastic fencing. One the holes are too small for him to get out and two it is soft so will not damage him. Feed Extra Large Jumbo Mealworms to peacock to addict him. Use same dish each time so he learns to know that dish is where the worms are. (these worms are chocolate to a peacock, they can not resist them. Once he tried them, he was begging at the door for them.)
Leave door of cage open, put in dish containing extra large jumbo mealworms. Once put in cage, DO NOT feed them mealworms outside of cage. Leave in cage only. It only took our peacock invader less than an hour to enter cage for his worms!

1. Lure them with food, fish nets at hand. Recognize that peacocks will not expose their behinds to you, even though they are incredibly hungry and will approach human feeders dangerously close. Recognize that peacocks are aware of nets and can distinguish between people who are connected to food and those who are associated with nets. Start to lose hope that peacocks are far more adapted than previously believed.
4. One morning, after two near-captures with the snare, we spotted a male displaying to the females that our snare bait (peanuts) had brought to the area. While the man is giving a very concentrated display, have one wrestler quietly approach from behind and seize his legs firmly from behind (note that person must overcome fear of projectile excrement first) Have the second wrangler swoop in to secure the wings.
Thus far, we have successfully captured 14 adult males here with technique no 4and much to my relief, we are beginning to frequently spot the banded males in specific sections of the park. I’d be interested in hearing any more ideas someone has for how we could go about capturing these birds!
2. Decide that fish nets are far too inefficient. Create a plan for a netted trap with handles at either end for peacock handlers to grasp, that sits flat on the ground with food placed in the center. The two wranglers hold lines that can be used to close the netted top and sides of the trap. Wranglers can lift the net and pull it shut over the bird once it has been drawn into the center of the trap. After spending several days looking for components and constructing this trap in the junkyard behind the Arboretum green houses using PVC piping and garden trellis netting, it was discovered that the peafowl are wary of the PVC piping and won’t cross it to reach the food in the center. You successfully lure one male into the center of the trap with a great deal of patience, but you narrowly miss catching him when the net is drawn closed too slowly.
3. Create two more traps: a remote-controlled caribiner that is meant to hook and grab the legs, and a snare that uses a line to snare the bastards’ feet. Both snares should have a pulley system to ensure that the snaring process happens as quickly as possible. Determine that there may be a significant risk of leg injury from the caribiner. Find out that even though the snare scares the birds, it can be more easily disguised and therefore has potential.
Keep the cage door open and place it in the dish with the extra-large jumbo mealworms. After placing them in a cage, NEVER give them mealworms outside of it. Leave in cage only. Our peacock invader entered his worm-filled cage in less than an hour!
