Outback strutters crossword clue

3 Down · WSJ Crossword, July 24, 2026 · 4 letters

Answer
EMUS
EMUS (4 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Outback strutters” is EMUS. It appears as 3 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of July 24, 2026, a Friday puzzle titled “It All Adds Up” by Gary Larson & Amy Ensz, and it fills 4 squares running top to bottom from row 1, column 3 of the 21×21 grid.

A plural clue takes a plural answer, which is why the entry ends in S. The entry begins with E and ends with S, and contains 2 vowels and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Friday puzzles are the Journal’s contest crosswords with a hidden meta answer, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
