The Emu, they're the worlds second largest bird. Emus are a cultural icon of the land down under, and are central to Australian mythology. These giant birds can't fly but they can run faster then you, probably can swim faster than you, and are most likely taller than you. Humans once fought a war with emus, which turned out to be a foolish endeavor, because the emus won. Humanity outsmarted ... by a bird, however glorious it may be. 

Join Jennifer and Amber this week on their Emu-tastic Adventures.
 
Note: At around 00:37:45, the island Jennifer is talking about is Crete which is Greece's largest island, and she was referring to dwarf hippos which have been unearthed in the Mediterranean, including Sicily and Crete.
