The two animals on the Australian Coat of Arms are the Emu and the Kangaroo. They feature on the coat-of-arms because neither creature is believed to be able to take a backwards step. Therefore, they are symbols of forward progression and advancement - appropriate for the new, young country emerging at the beginning of the twentieth century.
