They’re lower in Vitamins A, B1, B2, and B5, zinc, and manganese, but higher in selenium, magnesium, iodine, and iron. Also similar to a hen’s egg, Emu eggs contain all eight essential amino acids. But unlike a chicken egg, the Emu yolk is paler and has a 30% higher concentration of lipid-protein.

“They are also great as a quick nutritious meal or snack. “One emu egg is equal to about eight to 10 chicken eggs, so you wouldn’t eat a whole emu egg all to yourself, but it may be useful to feed a crowd.”

Emus are protected under the Biodiversity Conservation Act 2016 in New South Wales. Taking emus or emu eggs from the wild is illegal. If you want to keep captive-sourced emus as pets, you’ll need an animal keeper licence.

Animal lovers with a penchant for exotic pets can now keep sloths, raccoons or even emus after the Government relaxed the regulations on owning wild animals. A total of 33 new species can now be owned without a licence after a review of the Dangerous Wild Animals Act deemed them not to be a risk to the public.

The big question is can you have emus as pets. For the right—that means moneyed—people, emus can be kept as pets. But for most people, emus are better left to the care of emu farmers. Keeping emus as pets can be expensive in many respects: shelter, food, veterinary needs, time commitment, etc.

Emus are big birds—usually 110 to 150 pounds! —but they’re docile and can make great pets or livestock. To keep them, you’ll need tall wire fences with openings that the emus can’t get their heads stuck in, such as no-climb horse fencing.

No, it is not possible to ride an emu, because they are just not big enough. Emus are also known to shake off any weight that is put on them. Another thing to take into consideration before trying to ride an emu is the fact that they are protected by the law. Why can’t you ride an emu?

The ostrich skeleton is not designed to support a human’s weight, and this practice is likely to harm the physiology of the animals. Human riders also risk serious injury and even death, as these wild animals prefer to avoid human contact in natural environments.

Longer answer: no, because hippos are aggressive and not really suitable for the purpose of riding. Hippos are not domesticated animals and are not nearly as trainable as camels, elephants, and horses.

Yup it is possible to ride on a lion,but it is not a means of transport and moreover either you should be his trainer or you should have less weight than lion and there should be very strong bonding between animal and owner and it should be without any fear.

The first is that carnivores large enough to ride are few and all are very dangerous. Grizzly bear, Siberian tiger, Lions all are large enough for a human to ride. However all are dangerous, even today when these are made pets they still can maul people, even their owners.

The Definitive Ranking of Animals You Can Ride

• Tortoises.
• Dolphins.
• Reindeer.
• Llamas.
• Water Buffalo.
• Elephants.
• Camels.
• Yaks. No trip to the Steppes of Central Asia is complete without a ride on a yak.

Deer are not commonly ridden for two main reasons: one is that that most species are light boned and not suited to carrying a load, and also they are undomesticated with a skittish and unreliable temperament that makes them more dangerous to ride than a horse.

Even though they are very used to the presence of humans, they have not been domesticated and they aren’t pets. If they don’t like what you are doing to them they will bite or kick. In this case, the deer might bite or kick and might cause severe injuries.

Reindeer are the only deer species to be widely domesticated. They are used as beasts of burden and farmed for their milk, meat, and hides.
