First, it was the grackles, then the turkeys, and now the emus have been co-opted by the terrorists.
The article is funny on one point, though: “Emus, they said, are fragile and can overheat easily, and they feared scaring the animal could cause it to run and injure itself further.” Fragile, my hind leg– the ones we used to have reminded me of the raptors from Jurassic Park. (Clever girl…)
Of course, Jay has to ask “But the real question is, of course: What caliber for emu?” I’ve heard that a hot .38 Special (158 grain +P) double tap does the trick, but those birds were standing still… Personally, I say modern terror birds require at least a 12 gauge pump.
