Emu appears in Alabama man's yard
| Quote From Source: | A Chunchula, Ala., man says an emu, a large Australian bird, mysteriously appeared one morning in his front yard.
Greg Ritchie said the ostrich-cousin showed up in his yard Tuesday and thus far he has been unable to determine the bird's origins, WALA-TV in Mobile, Ala., reported Wednesday.
"He showed up yesterday around 11:00 and has been here since," Ritchie said of the emu. "Just trying to keep him here and keep him out of the highway and getting injured."

Could it also be a case of mistaken identity?

Its a case of a ton of people got these things and sold eggs during some stupid fad. Nobody wants to eat the damn things anymore so they just release the Emu's because it costs more to feed them than they are worth.
Hence we have free roaming emus.
They should take the warning labels off of everything and let stupidity sort itself out.

Well there are no hunting regulations in Texas so if you are on your deer stand and one happens to come by......
You could shoot it and paint it yellow and tell the kids you shot big bird..and see how long it takes for momma to kick you out of the house for the next few nights.
