God, I want one of those SO bad. I just don't know how I'd get away with it on my couple of suburban acres. I get away with a lot now, but something tells me a five foot tall, 80 lb bird that can do 35 mph just would attract too much attention.
OK, I have an assignment for all of you emu folks -- you need to breed the mini emu, something that matures at about the size of a standard turkey, 35-40 lbs and maybe about 3 feet tall. I'll take the first pair!
