How do we classify them?
You can even breed snakes without scales
Selective breeding isnt evolution, because you guiding the process
But it is interesting
Actually the Scaleless gene was found in the wild
It probably was
It was
I know the person who got the first one
but thats not evolution, evolution is change in a gene pool from generation to generation by random mutation, natural selection and genetic drift
selective breeding is usually not done with random mutations and it is not natural
So its not evolution
But it is way to show how it works without it takes many years
In a sense I suppose
But I prefer things like boxcar2D
Showing it via a program of random mutations and selection pressures
Also have worked with wild animals who through countless of generations split into two completely animals
I would need to inspect how wild these animals were
if you were working with them, could they be really called wild? I would need to know more to say so myself.
Living in nature and no contact with humans
The only interaction they had was when samples where needed
It reminds me of the 'wild' horses they found that actually ended up being horses domesticated by the original trainers thousands of years ago]
I would need to see for myself
There is a lot of papers on a few Darwin finches on Galapagos
There is also pictures of that
Proving evolution is something I tried to do when I was much younger, its old news for me
I am rusty on the subject
But usually it seems that its appeals to intution that are used by those that argue against evolution. They never actually start on the basis of understanding it before they try to smear it
thats why they say things like ''why are there still monkeys''
There is actually a interesting species of fish called the cave tetra
Depending on where the specie was born it either is totally blind and pink or have eyes with beautiful blue colors
Ah, it changes its genetic expression
Epigenetics
Primates would be more fitting
Monkeys are different
what the heck
wht is this.....
The species is actually questioning scientists if the blind version is actually slowly evolving into a new species as they are so different
Sadly not a lot of studies can be done with the wild population as there aren’t many left in the wild
They live in only one or two caves
And super sensitive to pollution
If the is earth flat why are all the other planets not That is a big flaw in flat earthers logic!
That’s like saying the rotating toys above a baby’s crib, means the crib is toy shaped. No thanks.
