A mob of emus
The greatest threat to emus is Man. Man degrades the environment and causes habitat loss, and introduces non-native animals such as cats, wild dogs and foxes, which attack juvenile emus. Emus can outrun dogs and dingoes, but the young emus are quite defenceless. Young emus are also subject to predation by goannas and eagles, while lizards eat emu eggs.
The emus' breeding season begins at the end of Autumn and goes through to Spring, so in Australia, this is from about May to October.
Generally, emus are shy and, in their natural state, will avoid human contact. However, like many living creatures, they can become aggressive when defending their young.
