By Ken Ham Is evolution a game of “slow and steady,” or is it more of a rapid process, happening “all around us all the time”? Well, that entirely depends on how you define evolution! According to a new paper, evolutionary changes can be very rapid, “seen within a lifetime.” But are the researchers actually observing evolution? Here’s the example of so-called “rapid evolutionary interplay” given at the beginning of the popular summary in the paper: In response to targeting by trophy hunters, wild populations of bighorn sheep are now growing 10 per cent smaller horns than they did less

Animal migrations occur all over the earth among many types of creatures, with some winged creatures (birds and insects) making the most extreme and lengthy ones. Among insects, the globe skimmer dragonfly (Pantala flavescens) is exceptional—being able to fly up to 3,730 miles across the open ocean. Scientists are finally beginning to unravel the required specificity behind the anatomical, behavioral, and metabolic complexity that … More… …read more Source: icr.org

By Ken Ham Australopithecus sediba—did it walk like a human but climb like an ape? According to a recent study, new lower back fossils of this so-called “human ancestor” supposedly “settles a decades old debate proving early hominins used their upper limbs to climb like apes and their lower limbs to walk like humans.” Now, we’ve said for years that A. sediba was just an ape. But does this new study show it was indeed a “missing link,” as the article claims? Paleontologist Dr. Gabriela Haynes, one of the members of our research team, shares this about A. sebiba and

By Ken Ham Evolution—will it happen in basically the same way, no matter where in the universe it occurs? An article from New Scientist argues yes, saying it doesn’t matter what “operating system” (e.g., DNA) that life uses: it will evolve via natural selection regardless. But what assumptions are going into such an assertion? Well, the article describes evolution, which it calls “a fact of life,” in this way: Here on Earth, organisms that just so happen to be better adapted, or “fit”, for their environment, perhaps by virtue of a fortuitous mutation, tend to survive longer and leave more

One of the many mysteries of biology is how a creature like a web-weaving spider with a tiny brain is able to systematically construct an elaborate web with amazing elegance, complexity, and exacting geometric precision. And to make the spidery task even more amazing, the creature does it blindly only using the sense of touch—an exceedingly complex mechanosensory-based application. A newly released study shows that this remarkable skill is … More… …read more Source: icr.org
It is hard to identify the behavior of creatures just from their fossils. An international team of paleontologists tried just that on a big group of dinosaur fossils from Argentina. Their Mussaurus specimens included developmental stages from egg through juveniles to adults. Clues from the 100 eggs and 80 specimens suggested to this team that these dinosaurs had social behaviors. A look at the traits behind these behaviors reveals a crea… More… …read more Source: icr.org

By Ken Ham “Shocking human tail surgically removed from newborn,” the headlines proclaimed. According to news reports, a baby boy was recently born in Brazil with a “human tail with a ball at the end of it.” The report even went so far as to call this a “real human tail”—but is that what it really is? Well, the article states (note how evolutionary the terminology sounds—really, what they call a “tail” isn’t a tail at all but the critically important coccyx where the muscles will attach later in development): Around the fourth week of gestation, most of us start

The sprouting of a seed is crucial to not only the beginning of a plant’s life, but all life on earth. Despite this fundamental process of importance to plant biology, scientists are baffled over how seeds detect when there’s enough water to germinate.

The book of Proverbs states, “Go to the ant, you sluggard! Consider her ways and be wise” (6:6). Evolutionists went to the ant, not to learn of her God-given ability to gather and store provisions, but to vainly attempt to determine human brain evolution. Human brain size has decreased since 3,000 years ago and is a mystery to anthropologists. To disentangle this mystery, a team of res… More… …read more Source: icr.org
