to attract potential mates to distract potential predators to help catch food to preserve warmth
I gave my students this multiple choice question: Male peacocks have large brightly colored tail feathers. What is the most likely reason for this?

Only one answer is correct among these 4 choices:
- to attract potential mates
- to distract potential predators
- to help catch food
- to preserve warmth

Could you tell me which one is correct?
