Darwin's observations regarding ostriches led him to the theory of Evolution. For example, when he visited one part of Argentina, he noticed that the ostriches were similar, not the same, to ostriches from another region of Argentina. The fossil record also mimicked this loosely. Thus, Darwin began to look for a viable theory that could answer this. Hence, the theory of Evolution was born, which made the scientific explanation for life as we know it today.

I hope this answers your question.
