STATEMENT FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF THE ENVIRONMENT, TOURISM, SCIENCE AND INNOVATION:
We ask visitors to avoid riding horses in Parklands Conservation Park during emu breeding season between May and September.
We recommend people ride in other locations, such as Eumundi Conservation Park.Warnings about emus reacting to horses are clearly signposted at the entrances of the park.
