A Stafford County, VA man didn’t intend to harbor a fugitive yesterday when he opened his front door to see why his dogs were barking. When he opened his door, an **emu** just waltzed in.
After taking a look at its claws, he decided he wasn’t going to be the one to ask the bird to leave. He called animal control and waited.

This wasn’t the man’s first run-in with the wild kingdom. While attending college in Richmond, VA years ago, he pulled into a **Burger King parking lot one night and was approached by two zebras**, escapees from [Maymont Park](http://www.maymont.org/animals/index.asp).
