This is an Australian one but looks pretty much the same.
Oh, this comment just made me realize something. With climate change and the global transport network, Australia's deadly wildlife (and less deadly but still intimidating huntsman spiders) won't be contained to Australia forever. And OP's photo might be evidence that containment has already failed.
Should we nuke Australia before it's too late? Or is it already too late? Will the second Emu war and WWIII be the same thing, only this time the emus will start it by invading other continents? Should we just give them some land on each continent to hopefully preemptively appease them? Or will that just enbolden them?
