    Yeah none of these articles say anything about it being a hoax...are you kidding me? Please tell me you are not a science teacher. Both of these articles talk about the validity of archaeopteryx's placement in the phylogenetic tree. Is it the first bird or not? We don't know for sure. We do know it was a species that exhibited traits of both reptiles and birds and that it lived between those two phyla. You are either taking info out of context, or just reading titles and making up your own info.

    Why humans did not develop gills for underwater exploration or wings/feathers so we can fly. I wish I have night vision eyes to conserve electricity. I think I watch too much none sense and this video is wasting our electric consumption

    Archaeopteryx is not a hoax, and no, I don't need any interpretation. The fossils meets the criteria for being characterized as representatives of the last common ancestor between various sister-species. It has little or nothing to do with interpretation whatsoever.

    Actually the ONLY thing you have is bones in the dirt. YOU put your interpretation on them. I can go dig up bones right now and arrange them however I want. by the way Archeopteryx is a known hoax yet still appears in textbooks today as evidence for evolution. You are being deceived by computer animations.

    Archeopteryx is a transitional fossil, yes. So is Sinornithosaurus, Ictyostega, Casineria, Dimetrodon, Propalaeotherium, Eohippus, Odotontochelys, Proganochelys, Smilodon, Smilodectes, Australopithecus anamensis, Australopithecus sediba, homo gautengensis, homo ergaster, etc., etc., etc. I mean, they are ALL over the place. The fact that you don't bother looking, doesn't prove anything.

    Evolution doesn't move in a straight line, it branches off like in the video. Also humans aren't the pinnacle of potential.
