Welcome back? I’m sure they’ll hire illegals to do the care and shearing and then they will ship the wool off to an under-developed country with no child labor laws to be spun and woven into clothing and then it will be shipped back and sold at an overinflated price that only the elite can afford.
Welcome back?

That's the ticket! My sister lives in a rural area in a southern state. Many of her neighbors jumped on the "make your millions -- raise emus" bandwagon. Oops. Nobody wants to eat their flesh, they are big and ornery and tricky to butcher anyhow. Result: feral emus everywhere. They are dangerous. Last year, neighbors were all trying to get in on the hot hybrid mutts as pets game. Decided labrador-pitbulls would be the next big thing, kind of like doodle dogs only cooler. Oops again... Maybe their local economy will be jump-started by the health care needs of those mauled by feral emus and pitlabs? yrs truly, tl Hey, yeah — alpacas? That’s the ticket!
