AboutWhat does the meme depict?

The 'Girl Running From a Peacock' meme features a photograph of a frightened young girl sprinting away from a peacock, which has its plume fully displayed in a dramatic fashion. The image has been widely adapted for humorous purposes by superimposing different characters or objects in place of the peacock, thereby exaggerating the scenario. One popular version replaces the peacock with an orangutan riding a tricycle, enhancing the surreal and humorous nature of the original image.
