Escaped pets mostly but some belong to zoos and are tagged and wander around.

We also have a population of parrots in London that are descended from escaped pets too.

In my hometown of Dunfermline they have (or had) 3 or 4 peacocks living in Pittencrief Park, who regularly wander(ed) up and in the town high street.

Not sure if they're still there though, as they kept getting hit by cars :-(

Yeah, I've seen them, haven't seen wild peacocks before.
