Gosh, I feel bad mentioning this bc you're excited about this product...but I feel like I should anyway, just in case you're sensitive to how products are made. I looked into Emu oil a couple years back; I don't know why, but I didn't think it actually came from the Emu....guess I thought it was just a 'name' for it. Anyway, apparently there is a lot of well documented cruelty for this Emus who are slaughtered.
Quote: Slaughter
Emus mature at a relatively slow rate compared to other birds; they are rarely slaughtered before the second year of life. The technique for slaughtering emus is similar to the methods used for smaller fowl such as chickens and turkeys. Trucks carry the birds to slaughterhouses, where machines break the emus' necks. The ASPCA notes that rough handling under these circumstances can cause the animals to suffer from injuries or pre-slaughter death.
