**BREAKING: Rogue Emu Saga Unfolds in South Carolina**

Residents of Horry County, South Carolina, have been left scratching their heads after multiple sightings of a mysterious emu roaming the area. However, in a stunning turn of events, the owner of the bird has come forward with two astonishing revelations: there are not one, but two emus on the loose, and they’ve been roaming free since June.

The emu sightings began to flood social media and local news reports over the past week, with eyewitnesses describing the large, flightless birds wandering through neighborhoods and backyards. Initially, authorities believed there was only one emu on the loose, but it appears that there are actually two birds evading capture.

According to the owner, who wishes to remain anonymous, the emus have been missing since June, and their escape has been a source of great concern. “We had no idea they were missing until we started seeing reports of sightings online,” the owner said. “We’re just relieved that people are safe, but we’re also worried about the birds’ well-being.”

The emus, which can grow up to 6 feet tall and weigh over 100 pounds, are native to Australia but are also found on farms and in zoos across the United States. It’s unclear how the birds ended up in Horry County or how they managed to escape.

The owner has released a statement assuring the public that they are working closely with local authorities to safely recapture the birds. “We understand that having two emus on the loose can be a concern for residents, but we’re doing everything we can to bring them home safely,” the owner said.

In the meantime, residents are being advised to exercise caution and keep a safe distance from the birds. While emus are generally not aggressive, they can be unpredictable and may defend themselves if threatened.

As the search for the rogue emus continues, local residents are left to wonder how such a situation could occur. “I just want to know how they got out in the first place,” said one concerned resident. “I mean, who has emus as pets?”

The incident has left many in the community shaken, but authorities are working to ensure public safety and to reunite the emus with their relieved owner.

**UPDATE**: A reward has been offered for information leading to the safe capture of the two emus. If you have any information or have seen the birds, please contact local authorities immediately.
