What is emus' behavior?

Emus are extremely curious creatures. They are not at all shy (though they may initially be wary of people). Their tendency towards curiosity has been misinterpreted as aggression. Although they're not at all aggressive, their curiosity causes them to peck at anything that piques their interest, and sometimes people have interpreted this as an attack.

In contrast, emus tend to be more docile and less likely to exhibit aggressive behavior towards humans or other animals. However, both species can show defensive behaviors if they feel threatened.
