By Ottilie Von Henning via SWNS

An ostrich on the loose briefly halted traffic after it refused to move and stood firmly in the middle of a dual carriageway.

Video filmed by a motorist on Tuesday (Aug 27) shows the ostrich standing in the way of traffic in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

According to local media, the ostrich was part of a larger group being transported through town that got loose.

After a couple minor detours, a group of people were able to herd the ostrich off of the road to safety using a bag of food

No people or birds were reported injured as a result of the unscheduled excursion.
