Yes, it would, but that's not quite right. The accurate example for the
guideline case would be:

%files Emu
%defattr(-,root,root,-)
%{_datadir}/Foo/Animal/Emu
%dir %{_datadir}/Foo/Animal/

%files Llama
%defattr(-,root,root,-)
%{_datadir}/Foo/Animal/Llama
%dir %{_datadir}/Foo/Animal/

In rpm macro speak, %dir means "own just this directory, and none of its
contents".
