To show the potential of their technique, Nielsen-Marsh and colleagues sequenced the amino acids in osteocalcin extracted from bones of the extinct steppe bison (Bison priscus) found in permafrost in Siberia and Alaska. Both bones are a minimum of 55,000 years old, the limit of carbon dating.

The complete sequences of amino acids exactly matched that of the modern bison (Bison bison).

Doesn't ID predict that these are all randomly different?

Why would it? From an engineering design perspective, it makes perfect sense to re-use a design that works. Do you think Black and Decker invents a new electric motor every time they come up with a new power tool?

Whenever we do any engineering design at my company, we go to the AutoCAD template file and start there. We take proven designs and employ them where they are most effective. ID implies the same technique.

It seems less likely that an exact match over a range of at least 55,000 years would constitute good evidence for evolution since we have two separate species that implies at least some random mutations for one to be an evolutionary precursor of the other.
