Marauding emus have taken to the streets of a West Australian tourist town and its residents are divided over their future.

The shire council posted tips on how best to deal with the emus on its Facebook page, but some residents were quick to express disappointment the council would endorse the use of a"high pressure cleaner" to move the emus on.Rumours then spread that the council may be considering a hands-on approach to moving mature male birds on, at the very least.

"During those conversations with DBCA the Shire of Nannup at no point has endorsed nor supported any culling of the local emu population," the post stated. Please be aware these are wild animals, they should not be approached as they may attack due to being frightened or protective of their young and will become less fearful of humans."

"They do take a bit of fruit off our trees and leave a bit of mess behind, as most animals will, but they don't cause a problem," Ms May said.

Evict? Yeah... bastards... why arent they paying any rent? Thats just not done in Australia.

So after we finish killing off everything because we are so much more superior, what then? I know the poor, low income earners and the unemployed. Ohhh wait. Morrison is already doing this

We already lost the war to them. They're the legal rulers of this country, so we have no right to evict them from anywhere, unless we feel like fighting the Second Great Emu War.
