Emus. Curious companions

Description

A somewhat gawky bird that has the most unexpected sexual habits is probably Australia's most recognisable bird. The emu is found over most of the country, from the tip of Cape York, through the centre and down into the south. But for a bird so common, we are only just now finding out about its habits. Life for the male emu is not only hard work but has little reward, while the female enjoys the luxury of running the show in the emu world.
