As an Australian, involved in agriculture and as someone whom has been involved in a emu cull, i would love for you all to realise that 1. Emu's are Australian natives, 2. Kangaroos decimate more cropping and grazing country than Emu's, 3. neither of these animals are considered pest species, although since the introduction of European farming, grazing and water harvesting and storage practices for livestock both species have grown in number to the point that they can not sustain them selves in drought times so both have become a commodity and are harvested commercially. The Cane toads have spread across the top end, but now some native species of birds and some mammals have now evolved to be able to eat them. The Rabbit Population across Australia has massively decreased since the introduction of the recent strain of Colici Virus much faster spreading than Mixo as Colici is spread by Fly populations in spring and early summer. Also worthy of note is that Feral Cat's are the number 1 public enemy of Australian pest species and are responsible for the extinction of at-least 2 native species. Get your facts correct, you can find all the current information through our State and national environment and water government departments, whom i work closely with.

Everyone likes to make fun of the Australians for losing, but nobody wants to acknowledge the fact that the Emus are not abiding by the Geneva Conventions. It’s unfair.

I actually did a promotional study on a relevant subject. We were studying whether lowering the capture/hunt of muskrats would have any negative effects at all, because theoretically, removing a certain amount of individuals would simply let the remaining ones thrive, unless you remove a LOT of them. Basically, shooting any number of emu that aren't a significant portion of them, would just increase the population growth of what's left.

This brings a whole new meaning to the expression killing two birds with one stone.

It's near impossible to explain to a non-Australian just how indestructible these birds are, and just how stupid they are. You can be driving 110k/hr on a rural highway, and out of nowhere an emu will run into your car thinking that's the best way to escape. I believe one emu was found after the "war" with over 30 bullets in it, and it was still alive. They just can't be killed.

You don't sound Australian but you are one of the few non Aussie KZreadrs who pronounces emu correctly. It matters & I appreciate your efforts, great job & a really interesting & accurate account of a little known time in our history.

@@CosmicToad5000 it's all in the 'mu'.... An Aussie will pronounce it 'mew', like 'new', but with a m so it goes emew. Most pronounce it more like 'moo' as in emoo.

Hey Hey Hey, we tried our best.

You forgot about the other "Invasive Species Problem" that Australian has by trying to eradicate those mice. Australian wildlife Feral cats problem. 😼 👀 They even had hunting competitions. 🙀

The Narrator forgot about the 6.3 million feral house cats roaming around Australia destroying almost all animal life there with almost no predators to keep them from breeding out of control..

I like how this guy is saying that mice might win the war in australia but the dogs dont seem to care they just see thousands of possible chew toys xD

Australian: i fear no man _looks at at emu_ but this thing scares me

there is an actually easy and possibly cost effective way to fix the emu and possibly rabbit problem that that one would be tough, go to Texas and Louisiana, and offer cheap hunting trips with discounts on butchering an taxidermy. Problem is now you would have invasive species of Texans and Cajuns, and god forbit if they can cross populate with the local Australian subspecies of humans ^^ emu and gator jumbo tho

The great depression might have ended in a tie breaker , by feeding some emu for non vegetarians and just leaving some wheat for other emu to sustain.. Instead of wasting the emmunission , could have found traps to lock them and then create a farm for export by raising them domestically

The calicivirus has kept the rabbits under control mostly since its release. We have many more problems though. Feral camels, feral cats by the millions, deer, wild brumbies ( horses ), goats, foxes, pigeons, Indian minor birds, fish like tilapia and carp and cross bread native dingo's with domestic dogs are some that come to mind.

Emu looks like a combination of peacock and ostrich 😄

Australia is basically the Dark Continent from HunterxHunter

This guy is the best narrator ever!!!

Aussies lost wars against emus, toads, rabbits, spiders and now mice... I came to the conclusion that the Aussies are all vegans, no exception.

That animated mice @14:04 gave me a mini heart attack, lol. I thought it was something on my screen.

My grandfather is 82 and has been a farmer all his life. He told me that before the Kalisi virus was released it wasn't uncommon to see so many rabbits in one place that you couldn't see the ground. Him and his mates would go hunting and it would be a bad night if they didn't shoot at least 50 rabbits. In comparision a good night rabbit hunting in 2020s is 2-3.

Rabbits were pretty terrible back in the day. The only thing that really stopped them was drought, but in the wet years they could potentially eat through most of a farmers crop in a relatively short period. This is why they were referred to as the ''living drought''. Whats more, because they ate through all of the grass and ground cover plants it would expose the soils, leading to degradation of the land and desertification. Drifting sand dunes was sometimes attributed to their prolific eating.
