Ah, but can they hop backwards? Aren't those hopping marsupials and not walkers?

Snapple is delicious, but I often overlook it. I may have to purchase a Snapple soon.

You're right. Here is the link to the wiki page.

This requires further investigation...

Is walking backwards really that useful? I don't think Kangaroos and Emus are really missing out on anything.

Some people cannot do back in parking....so the emu is not alone in his misery. The emu would make a nice mascot and be remembered. Arizona Emus. E-M-U-S.

It is for the gene pool. You never know what great medicinal discoveries may lead to an innocuous animal and a great finding. You keep them around until you need them.

I am a farm kid. And I have butchered an Emu. Tastes alot like beef with the qualities of chicken. Just be careful of the kicking.:wink0st:
