Professor Shubin (University of Chicago) is a well-known paleontologist who studies the morphological and developmental origins of the tetrapod limb. He recently discovered Tiktaalik, a species linking aquatic "lobe-finned" fishes with early terrestrial tetrapods. Held in conjunction with the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology's annual meeting in downtown Cleveland.

  • Nice input Professor Shubin. Your inputs is of great help to us.

  • Tick, tick, tick, tick, tiktaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalik BANG!

  • @JCH0720 lol oh JCH0720, you so silly.

  • @Timbul53525253 No, evolution has taken good science as twisted it to fit its agenda. Carbon dating is a prime example of this, because no one can know exactly how much carbon was in a given fossil when it died. They simply ASSUME the amount of carbon to start with, then calculate the half lives. Believe what you will, that is your right but I bet if you could talk to Darwin right now, he'd tell you that he hasn't been an atheist for about 130 yrs.

  • @realhomosapiens ''chimps and bonobos should be more close related'' Why dummy.

    The FACT is Humans are closely related to Chimps. That is because they share a common ancestor. Chimps are closer to humans than they are to Gorillas, that is a fact. That is the way they evolved.

  • @realhomosapiens

    (1) human anatomical preqrequisites present in fish

    (2) the relationship between fish gill buds and human parathyroid

    (3) the fishilke arrangment of aortae and aortic arches in human embryos

    (4) the same executive genes used in development of a human arm (a bat wing, mouse forelimb) and the pectoral fins of sharks and other fish.

    (5) transitional fossils - Tiktaalik and many other just for fish-to-amphibian transition, plus others for 'reptile' to mammal

  • @realhomosapiens

    So, shit for brains, why can't you support your assertion that humans and chimps are more closely related by DNA than are chimps and bonobos???

  • @realhomosapiens

    So, asswipe, why can't you support your assertion that chicken tears and human tears are almost identical?????

  • @realhomosapiens

    So basically, because you are willingly stupid and religiously brainwashed, you make up retarded shit and show your ignorance, and turn you back on evidence.

    Yes, it is really sad what a poison religion is to the human mind. You are an excellent example.

  • @DNAunion

    So basically when you have no arguments and not willing to conduct any objetive research name calling is your argument?...no my dear DNAunion, you´re millions years away from the truth and I do really encourage you to conduct a serios and objetive research on the data, I understand that such a research can lead you exactly where you don´t want to go, but if it´s so, so be it. and there are more facts that you´re willingly ignoring, this is not an educational debate, sorry for you
