	Behavioural ecologists elucidated how peahens choose their mates, and why
		Since Darwin, the peacock exhibiting an elongated tail composed of ocelli has been considered a prime example of the strength of sexual selection.
		However, a remaining question concerning the role played by ocelli is how peahens value their number.
		To be chosen, a peacock has to be beautiful but also has to be able to show how beautiful he is. It is not surprising that female preference is also driven by male behaviour." Indeed, they showed that male success was determined by both his ocelli density and his displaying activity.

		Therefore, as dull as peahens are, they are better camouflaged than peacocks in their homeland of tropical rain forests.
