@GossiTheDog Australian wildlife likes to make a mockery of our attempts to control it. If we try to hard it tends to take a few of us out to remind us why that's a bad idea.

@GossiTheDog to add to other references, this is a great (old) podcast.

@GossiTheDog There was a film about it released a few years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9uI9IjmZ93M -- it's available on Tubi here in Australia.

Apparently John Cleese is also working on an adaptation, but who knows if it will actually get completed.

@GossiTheDog I grew up on a bird farm that had emus in California. They are truly amazing.

@GossiTheDog great video breakdown of it. https://youtu.be/BXpu6tbFCsI?si=lvvuNoazcDKO-i1L Also recommend looking up the Pig War between Washington State and Canada.
