Question on Directory Ownership

I've been looking at the following example, but something is still unclear:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#File_and_Directory_Ownership
Let's say we have a single package Foo-Animal with Emu and Llama
subpackages (you know those snooty llama people... can't have anything emu
related on their systems).
If we have a files section for package Foo-Animal like this:
%files Emu
%defattr(-,root,root,-)
%{_datadir}/Foo/Animal/Emu
%files Llama
%defattr(-,root,root,-)
%{_datadir}/Foo/Animal/Llama
and, as in the example on the wiki neither Foo-Animal-Emu or
Foo-Animal-Llama has a dependency on the other, what does the files
section for each look like?
Wouldn't this cause duplication of files?
%files Emu
%defattr(-,root,root,-)
%{_datadir}/Foo/Animal/Emu
%{_datadir}/Foo/
%files Llama
%defattr(-,root,root,-)
%{_datadir}/Foo/Animal/Llama
%{_datadir}/Foo/
