      The Emu War, also known as the Great Emu War, was a nuisance wildlife management military operation undertaken in Australia over the latter part of 1932 to address public concern over the number of emus said to be running amok in the Campion district of Western Australia. The unsuccessful attempts to curb the population of emus, a large flightless bird indigenous to Australia, employed soldiers armed with Lewis guns-leading the media to adopt the name "Emu War" when referring to the incident. While a number of the birds were killed, the emu population persisted and continued to cause crop destruction.

    My grandpa is El Salvador, and my dad is Hondurian, my dad was about 6-7 years old when this war broke out, he remembers it vividly. That was the day my grandpa fought for his life with a machete, he fled to El Salvador bleeding, he barely made it alive. It would be another 8-10 years before my dad saw his dad again. What people don't realize, is that before the war people of El Salvador and Honduras lived side by side in Honduras, worked together, played with each other, married each other. This was a gruesome war that turned families/ neighbor's on each other.

    Thank you for the info. I thought the dispute was just over land , but apparently over flow of Salvadorian nationals into Hounduras causing friction with local farmers adds to it. My Father fought in the *100 hour war/Football War… Leaving the military he transition into Hounduras Secret Service protecting the president. He has a few pictures of his platoon & a couple protecting the President. He moved to the states in the early 70’s, retired now at 86yrd old🙌🏾😎✌🏾
