@@noahbaldwin8499 ..... I read several respected news sources that 3xplained that Emmanuel the Emus Avian Flu tests came back negative and that multiple tests and samples og different fluids were conoleted just to make sure. His owner explained to reporters that her particular vet and their local authorities (because Avian Flu is catastrophic to livestock) did the testing and disclosed the results and they came ro the conclusion that the Emu became ill due to stress after experiencing the majority of the bird flock that he lived with dying within one week. His inability to stand, eat and drink water was a stress reaction to his environment becoming very stressful. Having cared for large animals as well as several large birds myself I can verify that this indeed happens. I've seen animals lose weight and appetite loss due to stress and exhaustion. They stated they expect Emmanuel to make a full recovery.

@@noahbaldwin8499 turns out he didn’t have avian flu, but got stressed out when over 98% of the birds on the farm were culled due to the avian flu. Luckily he’s recovering from the stress.

Taylor and her emu are hilarious.
2:03, he hit the camera with that, “Did you really just ask me that?! You know I can’t fly, right? And people think I’m the crazy one…”
She is trying to educate the people, but she can not get her dam.. bird under control, ahaha!
