Some Quick Facts
Ostriches have been around a long time. Estimates range from 80 to 150 million years, and a
consensus of experts and historians generally place the species at about 120 million years old.
Ostriches have many characteristics of dinosaurs and over the years they have built up an
immune system which baffles scientists today.
We have assembled a large database of products which are available and would welcome your

Miscellaneous Products
Ostrich feet are being used by various companies in Asian countries, particularly ground and
used as an aphrodisiac.
Ostrich eyes have been donated to a number of ophthalmic institutes as the cataracts of the
ostrich have a remarkable resemblance to the human counterpart. Various experiments have been
completed although no final results have been made official.
Ostrich blood has been donated to both cancer and AIDS research centers because of its unique
characteristics. Initial results have been promising although information is slow to
emerge. As results are known we will publish them on our Web site.
Ostrich claws are found on the wing of the bird and have been used by the Africans for
creating necklaces and small wrist charms. Local mythology tells of tales of the claws providing
protection from the evils and perils of famine and locusts!
