In 1932, Australia conducted a government-approved military operation where soldiers with machine guns attempted to combat an invasion of 20,000 emus that had destroyed farms and crops across Western Australia. Despite firing thousands of bullets, the emus scattered, dodged, and kept moving, while the guns jammed repeatedly. After weeks of catastrophic failure, Australia officially withdrew, marking one of the most embarrassing military defeats in human history where the enemy had no hands. The emus never left and remain in Australia today.
