May 21 (UPI) — Police in Louisiana were called to help round up a mystery emu spotted wandering the city streets.
The Duson Police Department said on social media that officers responded Wednesday to help the Lafayette Animal Shelter & Care Center wrangle a loose emu.
“Different day, different animal in Duson,” police wrote.
The Lafayette Animal Shelter & Care Center said Thursday that the emu’s owner has not been identified.
“Anyone missing an Emu? ID# 118962 found around the 300 block of B Robin in Duson,” the shelter wrote on Facebook. “We don’t know the sex. It’s not housebroken. Someone please call us 337-291-5644 or come by to reclaim — because our team and the dogs are very confused.”
