The elephant bird was deemed as the largest bird in the world until it’s extinction in the 17th century. Adult fossils and eggs have been found since.
Nuclear and Mitochondrial DNA have been extracted from an egg to help us find out more about this very large bird related to the ostrich and emu.

So much information can be learned about yourself with Y Chromosome and Mitochondrial DNA testing.
Yet, Genetic DNA Testing is still in it’s embryonic stage. We have so much to learn about it still. The good news is, if you get a DNA test your information can be monitored online for new discoveries and connections.
People tend to think it is a task and a process. The only part of you being examined is the DNA that comes from your mouth of a cotton swab. No shots, no skin scraping… enjoy the technology your ancestors couldn’t.
