What is the Great Emu War and who won?


assistant
The Great Emu War was a military operation undertaken in Western Australia in 1932. The Australian public, in particular farmers, were concerned about the large number of emus running amok and destroying crops. The emu is a large, flightless bird which is native to Australia. The Australian military was deployed to get the birds' numbers under control. Due to the speed of the emus and difficult terrain, the military was unsuccessful in controlling the emu numbers. It could be argued that the emus won the Great Emu War of 1932.
