Florida Deputy Sheriff Captures Runaway Emu Safely

A Florida sheriff's deputy has successfully captured a large, escaped emu and brought it safely home. The incident occurred in a rural area west of St. Augustine, after the flightless bird was reported to have gotten loose.

Authorities said the deputy attempted to subdue the emu, but the bird stampeded several times with its large talons and fled. After a brief chase, the deputy cornered the emu and subdued it with a lanyard, then handcuffed its legs to prevent its claws from escaping.

The emu was returned to its owner unharmed, and no charges were filed.

The owner should be grateful that it is not caught in Nigeria! Or by now it will be used to cook delicious meals like egusi soup or Banga soup! . Africans don't give a damn about animal conservation.

That right, Africa don't joke with bird it at all. The owner is in deed very lucky because in Nigeria no one would return your thing.

Funny but true, they will use it to cook banga soup or pepper soup. Nigerians can easily eat anything honestly without a care for nature.
