Emus are members of the ratite family, a classification
of large flightless birds that includes Ostriches and
Cassowaries. They are the second largest bird in the world
and are native to Australia. They eat plants and insects
in the wild, can grow to over six feet tall, and can run up
to thirty miles per hour. Emus have long talons on the
end of each toe that they use to defend themselves from
predators. For this reason, ranchers often raise emus
alongside other animals as a way to protect their herds
and flocks. Commercial emu farming began in Australia
in the 1970s and has since gained popularity in countries
around the world. Emus are farmed for their meat, leather,
feathers and oil.
For thousands of
years the healing aspects
of Emu Oil were first discovered by
the Aborigines of Australia. Since then, the
modern healing uses are used by many for –
Wrinkles and Fine Lines • Stretch marks • Arthritis
