At least a dozen peacocks were found dead near here apparently due to scorching heat and non-availability of water, forest officials said.
"Nearly a dozen peacocks were found dead on Tuesday at Narsinghshila village, about 20 km from here. The carcasses were brought to the district headquarters here today for post-mortem," district forest officer K.S. Bhadoriya said.
