Footage of five runaway ostriches scampering down a motorway in China.

The video, captured in Foshan in China's southeastern Guangdong Province on October 3, shows five ostriches running alongside cars on the motorway, to the bemusement of motorists.

One driver can be heard urging on the birds, saying: "Run fast! Come on!"

According to local news, the ostriches escaped their enclosure after their owner named Liang forgot to lock it.

Unfortunately, according to local media, four out of the five ostriches died after running nearly 50km in hot weather without drinking water.
