Most egregious is the one copying the title from Snopes' "Video Genuinely Shows White 'Baby Peacock'?" (with the question mark cut off). A page all about how the picture isn't a real baby peacock.

But also, if you search the more accurate term, "peachick", you seem to get 100% real images, although half the pages call them "baby peacocks".

And the first result is from Adobe Stock, who you might assume would have higher standards than Pinterest and TikTok, but here we are.

actual baby peacocks are almost indistinguishable from guinea hatchlings and there's a strong resemblance to baby chickens or turkeys.

You know that, but what about some kid looking on google images?

I’m an adult and I didn’t know that
