People in a nearby county have been stunned by seeing a loose emu in the area. Animal Control has been trying to catch it since Weds. As you know they are not native to this part of the world. Apparently, it seems like the emu's owner has not stepped forward, because no one has claimed it. Apparently, one was on the lose in PA for a week! This was a different case..
March 1 (UPI) — An emu was spotted running loose in a Virginia city just one day after another of the large flightless birds was captured in

They would have to catch him first, and from what I have heard he is quite elusive.

I have room for an emu. Only problem is that I have heard that one of those guys can kick and hurt you easily. I hope they catch the bad guy.

It seems really astounding no one has claimed him..Maybe the owners are away, or maybe they decided he was too much trouble..

Maybe, or maybe he is just thrilled to have a taste of freedom. I just hope it doesn't get hit by a car. I am sure animal control will be after it all day though.
