Good point and there is a lot of similarity between
the DNA of people (or any mammal) and gum trees or grass or fungi
etc too. I vaguely remember something about 20 to 30%. Not surprisingly, as
the processes of many biological functions, such as the running of our
genetic systems (meiosis & mitosis etc) and many very basic biochemical
processes are still similar and common to all multicellular life. But that is
getting a bit off the topic of Canberra birds.
