In 2018, a similar incident garnered attention when a female traveller attempted to bring a peacock on board a United Airlines flight as an emotional support animal. Despite her offer to purchase a separate plane ticket for the bird, the airline declined her request, due to the bird’s weight and size, as reported by BBC.
Following a six-hour trouble at the airport, the woman and her peacock chose an alternative route, they decided to drive across the United States. The peacock, named Dexter, is owned by Ventiko, an artist based in Brooklyn. Talking with a local magazine, she mentioned, “I have never left the house without having at least one person react.” She added that Dexter impacted her life in a positive way.
The artist initially brought Dexter, along with a peahen, Etta, for an art installation. She provided them with a new home, but Etta went missing. This impacted Dexter, encouraging Ventiko to make a decision. Upon learning that Dexter was being kept in a garage, she then decided to take him into her own residence.
