As far as I know Australia is the only country in the world to eat it's own National Emblem

The emu and the kangaroo

The emu is used for oil, which is a healing product, leather fron the hide, feathers in hats

The emu eggs are also used for decorative carvings as the layers are different colours

The meat becomes sausages, steaks.

The kangaroo is turned into sausages, steaks, mince for hamburgers



Australia has never adopted any official motto or faunal or bird emblem. By popular tradition, however, the kangaroo and emu are widely accepted as national faunal and bird emblems.
