TikTok’s newest cute animal to become a viral sensation is an attention-seeking emu named Emmanuel from @KnuckleBumpFarms, a small hobby farm in Florida. Emmanuel’s most famous antics involve disrupting his owner, the influencer Taylor Blake, as she attempts to film content for her 2M followers. Blake runs the farm with her girlfriend Kristian Haggerty, who was previously one half of the first LGBT+ couple to appear on reality show The Bachelor in Paradise.
