According to the website of the Australian Government, the emu and the kangaroo were chosen to hold the shield on the coat of arms because neither animal has been observed taking a backward step. Whether or not it is true that these animals cannot step backwards has been an ongoing matter for debate, but regardless, it is the reason why the emu was chosen.
