In 1977 a friend and I were shooting rabbits along the road north of
Port Augusta to Hawker at the base of the Flinders Ranges, South
Australia. We did come across a flock of about twenty Ostriches. They
were very unusual after seeing Emus everywhere else. I think we shot
one. They were feral and not in a properly fenced yard. Soon after I
found out that they were worth, at that time, something stupid like
$35,000 per pair. Don't know if they are still there or not.

Hi All,
Does anyone have information on tickable Ostriches in
Australia?
There was a population somewhere on the Eyre Peninsula SA, is
this
still extant?
Cheers
