Yes, the dodo bird is considered an index fossil, although it is not commonly used in geological dating due to its relatively recent extinction in the late 17th century. Index fossils are typically species that were widespread, abundant, and existed for a brief geological time period, which helps in correlating the age of rock layers. The dodo's distinctive characteristics and limited time frame make it useful for identifying specific periods in the Holocene epoch. However, it is more often referenced in discussions about extinction and conservation rather than formal geological dating.
