Both marked spans share one linear scale. Artwork keeps its proportions; poses and surface detail are illustrative.

A little perspective

The length of 6 feet is about 1.02 times the standing height of Emu.

Comparing: Length ↔ Standing height
Relative size: 6 feet is larger on this measurement by a factor of about 1.02. 6 feet's selected measurement is approximately 1.6% greater than Emu's.

The labelled spans and stored measurements determine the scale; unmeasured illustration details do not.

Emu uses a 1.8 m central value within a recorded range of 1.5 m–1.9 m.
Emu is labelled representative; treat the displayed value as a comparison anchor rather than false precision.
The recorded ranges overlap, so the ordering can vary even though the central values differ.
