Did You Lose an Emu? Bow Police Would Like to Talk to You

WATCH: Australian bird is on the loose.

During the last two days, the Bow Police Department has had several reports about an Emu wandering around town.

The areas it has been seen include Hunter Drive, Brown Hill, and Hampshire Hills.

The bird, which is the second largest living bird in the world, is not native to Bow or New Hampshire but lives in Australia, meaning that someone in the region, it would appear, has lost its pet.
