Back in the 80s and 90s a series of fossils were found that rocked the evolutionary landscape, paleontologists thought they had found a clear transitional series of fossils documenting the evolution of whales.
University of Chicago Evolutionary Biologist Jerry Coyne says in his book, Why Evolution is True: “This is one of our best examples of an evolutionary transition...”
Wow, one of the best... let’s take a look at the story behind whale evolution, is it a good argument?
