The
emu (
//,
sometimes
US //;
Dromaius novaehollandiae) is the largest
bird native to
Australia and the only
extant member of the
genus Dromaius. It is the second-largest extant bird in the world by height, after its
ratite relative, the
ostrich.
There are three subspecies of emus in Australia. The emu is common over
most of mainland Australia, although it avoids heavily populated areas,
dense forest and arid areas.
