Priscilla was being moved in a trailer to the sanctuary yesterday, when she escaped. After spending the night in the wild, her former owner and Debbie McLain and her husband at Downeast Equine and Large Animal sanctuary were able to locate her and safely bring her to her new home!

Priscilla now joins the following emus in the mob

  • Pheebs and Ike a mated pair
  • Kyle 1
  • Kyle 2
  • Kyle 3
  • Kylette

When the Kyles were hatched 2 years ago, they were named not knowing their sexes. It turned out that there were 3 males, hence Kyle 1, Kyle 2 and Kyle 3 and one female - Kylette!

The plan is that once Priscilla is assimilated one of the Kyles will join her to provide companionship.
