@@echenxmax The Great Emu War. Basically the emu were becoming problematic in Western Australia so the Australian army dispatched a couple of men armed with machine guns to cull them and drive them away from the farms. However the emu proved to be too nimble and wily for the machine guns to prove effective. Two expeditions were launched by the Australian army, but were eventually recalled. It's estimated that the expedition only killed about 1,100 emus over the course of a month, despite having expended over 30,000 rounds of ammunition. The Australian government declared that the birds had "won" the "Great Emu War." And then they promptly put a bounty on the birds and sent proper hunters in to deal with the issue, which proved much more effective at keeping the emu population numbers in check.

Ummm.. You haven't by chance heard about the cassowary? Sometimes called the deadliest bird on the planet? Those are dangerous.. Wild Emus I've never been worried by.
people take the mic out of how australia lost the emu war, but can you imagine trying to shoot something that moves that wacky, with that fluffy plumage, you'd have no chance
Just learning about emus. How can such a huge animal be so flopsy, cute and terrified of their own shadow all at the same time. Very interesting!! These videos are amazing and I've learned a few things!!!
Looks to me he was looking to get out maybe head for the highway? Music was fitting. Then he decided there's no way out let me chill in this pond. Smart move buddy.
it looks like it's training for the 2nd Great Emu War....the guerrilla tactics of the Emu Commands in the first one proved to be quite successfull after all.
Emus look almost like really bizarre puppets being manipulated by invisible puppeteers. The way they move and balance looks totally unnatural.
they are dinosaurs so
They look like toupees with legs.
Octo Gone If they could breed a bright orange one, Americans would elect it president.
Jacob Hoss I would
Now now, emus are way smarter than Trump.
Emus move like they have not a single bone in their body and it's so fucking funny XD
It's great to see the two war veterans having such a great time!
Must be amazing to have a domesticated dinosaur of that size!
Yeah
I used to have one, they are cool animals but dumb as shit... probably one of the least intelligent animals ive ever seen lmao
@@wewuzvikangz4829 Why do you say that?
@@gregorygherkins1884 because they aint bright, technically they are No dinosaurs either, they are birds

The rules of Australian big birds: Emus are hilarious, cassowaries are terrifying.
Little mop dinosaurs.
omg it's little wing stubs. lol
Its actually closer to arms than wings :P
These creatures nearly conquered australia in the 1930's
Wath happend

@@echenxmax then they had be so much fun by watching this creature
Willeh aka bloody legend they did
Emu#1: I’m going in, I’m gonna bloody do it!
Emu#2: Look out for the crocs, Bruce!
Emu#1: This is Minnesota, Marion.
Emu#2: I'm bill williamson
imagine if they had arms with big claws
oh god... please save us
We lost a war against them as it is...
xD
Scientists are working on it
They already have birds with teeth
Emu have little arms with claws, not wings.

they have very dangerous big toes, just like other ratites.
*Beats Australia in a war*
Watching emus get excited is pretty fun.
1:08 - Awh look, it's a black swan ;o
*Moments later..* OH MY GOD WHAT IS THAT?!
WolfPupGamingHD lol
Beautiful and hilarious simultaneously ... love the choice of music ... rhythm perfectly fits the emu's wild moves!!
Such a majestic creature!!
Majestic creature, they are so happy, they are dancing !
No he's looking for a way throuhh the fence
One look at these magnificent animals and you can totally understand how they won the Great Emu War.
The lil wings!
Music was fitting. And those teeny, tiny nub wings
The Emu is basically the Canadian Goose of Australia.
Fucking. Dangerous.
Ummm.. You haven't by chance heard about the cassowary? Sometimes called the deadliest bird on the planet? Those are dangerous.. Wild Emus I've never been worried by.
All birds in some way are dangerous, you know. I know the Cassowary is very velociraptor-like but doesn't mean it's only deadliest bird on the planet
So true xD
people take the mic out of how australia lost the emu war, but can you imagine trying to shoot something that moves that wacky, with that fluffy plumage, you'd have no chance
The way emus move... it's like they're constantly having microseizures.
Thank you very much for this cute and joyful moment! This emu is pretty and beautiful. Greetings from France.
Emus are so wonderfully wild, wooly, crazy and goofy.
Nature is always better than anything we humans could think up.
I want one! They are so silly...and can't walk backwards! Lol
CyndyKated Have to admit. I haven't seen many other birds walking backwards either. Lol.
I keep expecting two little arms come out of their feathers. Lol
Haha! Going off! Big fella having a grand old time running about doing loopy stuff.
i want an emu now
Emus move like a video game character being controlled by a grandmother who is playing video games for the first time in her life.
'I'm out today and I'm gonna dance, watch out!'
The first day of good weather, the joy is palpable in these creatures.
Massive beautiful emu , they would love that pond and they have the funniest moves .
Poor things, they need to runnnnnnnnn long-distance.
These emus have a case of the "zoomies". 😂
Great dance and great music.
I bet if they had tiny arms they would have them outstreched as they run
or thrown up and dangling behind them hahaha
Running with arms outstretched, singing "I believe I can fly!"
They DO have tiny arms, but they just dangle down.
they would totally flail literally everywhere
@@ay1a602 Muppet style.
They're adorable funny creatures.
That bird is fucking stoked
hahaha love emus
sweet. Thanks.
So cuuuute
The way they’re actually on beat to the song.
Like 0:34? Lmfao
Perfect music!
We have just witnessed a Emu Happy Dance. Now you know. . . 🤓
My friend is scared of emu’s so I’m sending this to her
Love the music
Runs like a bloody wally.

Emus are like living marionette puppets. Some sort of weird Muppet creature.
I love emu
the music is perfect
I want whatever he's on
Animals have feelings just like people, they want to be free, please treat them kindly .
When emus get the zoomies 😅
I swear half the time their heads look like passengers.
I’ve seen enough of Jurassic park & Karen. I now imagine the raptors had a feather boa. 😅
The movement of these birds is so strange to watch. It’s like they would fall over if they get too excited.
lol this is so funny you made me spit out my drink!
Perfect music
LOL good sound editing
Aww, Its like a Big Bird Bath
Fancy footwork
They don’t look like they should be able to walk with so much forward body weight, especially in the water, but they do! And it’s so funny 😂
Guess they got that Badonkadonk in the back for balance.
Heaven.
Former velociraptor having fun 😊
I enjoyed the hip soundtrack
I don't know what he is so happy about. His life has no purpose as far as I can see.
fave aussie animal
:Poor guy, he wants out!
So cute
Ah...an emu trying to be a duck...or a sponge.
I can't believe this animals exists. It looks like a star wars creator
Emu doesn't know about puddle sharks.
big baby taking a dip to cool off thr pretty things but I think I'll stick with my chickens they keep me busy enough
Emu zoomies!!!❤
Looks like its warming up for Olympics.
What funny animals
Looks like their legs have life of there own 🤔😊
Ostrich may be bigger but emu has the biggest personality 😂
that's cute
Emu being crazy
Big ol turbo chickens. XD
the shit sounded like smack my bitch up prodigy
Oh ! The Lock Ness monster is a large Emu in the water oooooo😮h
These things beaten Australia
Losing to farmers is another thing..
Maxed up level balance mastery
He's not crazy, he's in captivity.
No they are fine , as long as they have a big space to run around , Iv had 2 they never try and get out . They were happy and new that was home .
Limu emu lol
the sweet and weird cousin of the ostritch
it looks like it's training for the 2nd Great Emu War....the guerrilla tactics of the Emu Commands in the first one proved to be quite successfull after all.
It's not crazy, it's happy.
That dinosaur is a goofball.
it's easy to forget they have arms lmao
I hope the guys inside the Emu costumes weren't getting too hot. 😅
A wild animal gets let out of a tiny cage into a bigger cage. That's as funny as fuck.
Look at that thing move, it's no wonder we lost the damn war
Emus are totally goofy.
Feels like it misses its hands.
