How to read the visual
The diagram uses the recorded measurements. Details outside the marked spans do not set the scale.
- We use 1.8 m for the standing height of an emu; the recorded range is 1.5 m–1.9 m.
- The standing height of an emu: This is a representative comparison value; individual specimens or conditions can vary.
- The recorded ranges overlap, so the ordering can vary even though the central values differ.
This comparison follows the selected length only; other dimensions may differ.
