Emmanuel the emu DOESN'T have avian flu – he's just stressed, owner reveals

Florida farm owner Taylor Blake has revealed her emu, which shot to fame after being featured in several viral videos she posts to social media, is not dying of avian flu as she previously thought, and is just stressed. 

‘Emmanuel Todd Lopez tested negative for Avian Influenza at 2 separate labs, swab, fecal and blood,’ she tweeted on Saturday. 

Blake even reached out to Bindi Irwin for help treating her emu, named Emmanuel Todd Lopez, but was refuted as Irwin did not believe she did not have the experience to help. 

Luckily, Blake has revealed her emu has tested negative for the killer disease and the symptoms that previously plagued him, which DailyMail.com reported on, ‘all stemmed from stress.’
