An elusive emu on the lam in Vermont has been amusing residents in communities on Lake Champlain. The 150-pound flightless bird looks like a small ostrich. It has been spotted wandering here and there in Grand Isle and South Hero since it escaped from a local farm five weeks ago. It was spotted again Friday outside the South Hero elementary school, where it walked by a window of the principal\'s office. School worker Steve Berard tried to lasso it with an extension cord, but it broke free. The emu\'s owner tells WCAX-TV (http://bit.ly/yYUT7C ) he bought three emus for his grandchildren but they don\'t make great pets.He\'s taken out an ad in a local newspaper saying, \"Free emu if you can capture it.\"
