“Currently, [Emmanuel] is stable. His neurological symptoms have subsided but he still won’t eat or drink on his own,” Emmanuel's owner wrote. “I am hand feeding him & giving him subcutaneous fluids every 2hrs around the clock.
CNN previously reported on the emu, who rose to fame after his owner, Taylor Blake, began posting videos documenting life on her small farm, Knuckle Bump Farms, in south Florida. Emmanuel repeatedly interrupted Blake’s videos of other animals to peck at the camera and garnered millions of views in the process. Blake posted a lengthy Twitter thread Saturday, in which she described the “massive tragedy” caused by an avian flu outbreak at her farm.
“He is a fighter and I wholeheartedly believe he is going to make a full recovery.” The emu is suffering from nerve damage in his right leg and foot, Blake said. Blake posted snapshots of the sling she and her girlfriend engineered to help him regain function in the leg. Emmanuel and a swan named Rico, are now the only birds left on the farm, Blake wrote. The facility is also home to cows, deer, and pigs, among other animals.
