Order: Casuariiformes (Cassowaries & Emus)
Family Casuariidae (Cassowaries, Emu)The bird family Casuariidae consists of very large flightless birds (ratites) native to Australia & New Guinea, namely cassowaries and Emus. Emus were formerly classified in their own family, Dromaiidae, but are now considered to have a close enough relationship to the cassowaries to be part of the same family.
