CONSPIRACY
SPROCKET: G.E.M.U. > Background
After
experiencing disappointing failures with military animal
hybrid projects, the U.S. Army and the C.I.A. decided
to shut down all of their animal hybrid labs. The
Killguana had been blamed for the failure of a pre-Bay of
Pigs invasion on Cuba. When the CIA decided to airdrop
an Assasiponimus into Iran in the hopes of ending the 1982
hostage crisis, it became disoriented in a sandstorm and
was not recovered. In a failed covert military operation,
thousands of Infantry Weasels were shipped to Afghanistan
by former President Reagan to lend support against invading
Soviet troops. The results were disastrous.

failures with the Killguana, Assasiponimus and the
Infantry Weasel, the CIA turned to the deadly Emu
to find the Ultimate Killing Machine" |

When
the U.S. government decided to end it's military animal
hybrid programs, many of the animals were sold as surplus
to glue manufacturers, potted meat producers, The Gap
and to one anonymous yet very eccentric pop singer.
Private industry embraced many of the technologies that
were developed in these early programs. Kentucky
Fried Chicken changed its name to KFC for legal reasons
after purchasing the patent for the boneless fighting
pigeon.
Many
of the original G.E.M.U.'s were auctioned off to Mexican
Emu ranchers. These G.E.M.U. mated with the civilian
Emu population and found their way back to the U.S. when
Emu ranching became a popular alternative to earth worm
wrangling, cow punching, soda jerking and many other industries
practiced in the "Square" states of western America.
