Pima County Sheriff's spent several hours trying to capture four emus that got loose Thursday morning in a neighborhood on the southwest side, authorities said.
The four large birds were contained in the area of West Drexel Blvd. and South Cardinal Ave., said department spokesman, Deputy Tracy Suitt.
Two have been returned to their owner and are back in their pen, while the other two are en route in a horse-trailer.
Emus are the second largest birds in the world, while ostriches are the first.
