An emu walks into a bar: Pub bans flightless birds for clumsiness

Australia is home to a plethora of fascinating wildlife. Many of the island continents’ species can’t be found anywhere else on Earth, and some, like the emu, are considered national treasures. But at least one establishment in Australia isn’t too fond of the massive flightless bird. The Yaraka Hotel, a pub located in the heart of the Australian Outback, has officially banned emus from entering the bar due to a string of messy situations where the birds entered and created a mess. 

As part of their fear response, emus will run forward but look behind themselves the entire time. When an emu gets indoors and hears a loud sound, they’ll run into everything without even thinking about it, and they’re heavy enough to shatter glass and splinter wood. In spite of this, the bar is not fully discriminatory to birds. Parrots, apparently, are still fully welcome inside. We’re guessing it’s because they’re more interesting to talk to. The expression “bird-brained” exists for a good reason.
