NEW DELHI: Peacocks don’t have ***, but rather shed tears to conceive, according to a judge in western India whose unique theories have set off a social media storm in the country.
At a hearing in Rajasthan state’s high court on Wednesday, judge Mahesh Chandra Sharma urged India’s government to declare the cow -- considered sacred in Hindu-majority India -- as the national animal since it is "as pious as a peacock".
"The peacock is a lifelong celibate. It never has *** with the peahen. The peahen gets pregnant after swallowing the tears of the peacock,"
Sharma said on his last day in ****** before retiring. Sharma’s comments, made in response to an NGO’s petition on the condition of state-run cow shelters, sparked a flurry of jokes and comments on social media.
"Profoundly ironical, that it was the peacock **t its tears but plumage that led Darwin to propose the landmark theory of ***ual Selection," said Anand Ranganathan on Twitter.
