Ostriches are definitely not native to Australia. However, ostrich farming resulted in the release of some of these birds in South Australia in the late 1800s, and consequently there are known to be some feral populations in two widely divergent areas - around Port Augusta and Murray Bridge.

Australia's large, native Flightless Birds include the emu and the southern cassowary.

The turkey grown and produced commercially on poultry farms is not native to Australia.

The Australian scrub turkey, also known as the bush turkey and brush turkey, is a fowl-like, ground-dwelling bird that lives in bushland and rainforests, and is known for the enormous mound it creates to incubate its eggs. This bird is not farmed for any purpose.
