In today’s change-filled world, God is ubiquitously displaying His creativity to provide for our most important needs. God’s creative providence fulfills what we need to solve the challenging problems of daily living. Something similar is exhibited in the world of nature. Creatures are built with traits that adapt to the situations that surround them. The Eurasian Woodcock (Scolopax rusticola) looks like a skin… More… …read more Source: icr.org

Neanderthals are classified by evolutionists as archaic humans given that both their DNA and bones are essentially human. Yet, new stories constantly hit the headlines with the supposedly shocking news that anatomically modern humans and Neanderthals were found to have interbred once again. Recently, another such story appeared in the journal Genetics.1 Why is this type of news so exciting, yet also so confusing to ev… More… …read more Source: icr.org
High-speed creature communication has been making the news recently. There was underwater research on deep-sea squid,1 and now bird communication. In fact, the rapid signaling discovered in the honeyeater bird is all part of an intricate multi-part message that has scientists in awe at both its rapidity and complexity.2 The honeyeaters are a large and diverse family of small to medium sized birds mostly found … More… …read more Source: icr.org
Now is the season—late March and April—for bluebonnets to blossom in Texas!1 Establishing these beautiful flowers is difficult, as many have learned. But that difficulty is itself telltale evidence of God’s bioengineering care, because those flowers need much more than luck to succeed! Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they neither toil nor spin; and yet… More… …read more Source: icr.org

By Ken Ham With our fingers we can type on a keyboard, play notes on a piano, and sketch a detailed landscape. Whom do we have to thank for these nimble appendages? Well, according to a recent news item, we can express our thanksgiving to . . . an extinct fish! “Thank This Fish for Your Fingers” Researchers recently reported the discovery and analysis of a nearly complete (yet poorly preserved) specimen of a supposedly 380-million-year-old fish, Elpistostege watsoni. This five-foot-long fish, found in modern-day Quebec, Canada, is being heralded as a “transitional form” between fish and tetrapods (four-legged animals).

In the deep, dark, cold waters of the Pacific Ocean—about 1,500 feet below the surface— hundreds of Humboldt squid the size of small humans (~ 5 feet long) were recently observed feeding on a school of lantern fish only about 3 to 4 inches long. The scientists used a high-tech remotely operated vehicle (ROV) with highly sophisticated photographic equipment to document the squid’s behavior. What they discovered was shockingly sop… More… …read more Source: icr.org

Darwin’s theory of evolution makes several predictions about adaptation. But recent genetic findings raise questions about the accuracy of evolutionary theory, since the findings point toward different types of engineered adaptability. The latest challenges to Darwin’s theory, published in March 2020, come from the fascinating insects known as turtle ants. More… …read more Source: icr.org
It’s mole season. Moles get active in springtime, especially during March and April. Moles are mostly hidden out of plain sight, but they are actually important members of God’s creation. Many people dislike moles, due to how the creatures wrinkle lawn surfaces, but the ecological benefits usually outweigh such minor yard-care nuisances. Moles are known for digging. But how do they dig? More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Ken Ham In a recent news release from North Carolina State University (NCSU), the first-ever report of dinosaur cartilage cells having been discovered was announced. Several bones, including juvenile skull bones from the herbivorous duck-billed dinosaur Hypacrosaurus, were found in the Upper Cretaceous (Campanian) Two Medicine Formation of northern Montana, conventionally dated between 83–72 million years ago. In many juvenile animals, and in humans (up to late teens or early twenties), parts of the skull contain cartilage, which eventually calcifies and fuses into the bone. In many juvenile animals, and in humans (up to late teens or early twenties),

By Ken Ham A recent news item caught my eye. It stated that the soldiers of Turtle ants show that evolution can go in reverse. This might seem like a startling announcement until you look closely at what they observed and reported. The researchers were somewhat surprised to learn that this size variation almost perfectly correlates to the width of the tunnels these ants live in. There are over 100 species of Turtle ants of the genus Cephalotes. They mostly live in the trees of tropical areas all over the world. Ten of these species have no soldier ants (basically

Cichlid fish are a top biological model for the study of diversification because of their unique ability to adapt to a wide range of lake and river environments. They also produce a startling array of unique traits. For creation scientists, they are particularly interesting because they provide an opportunity to illustrate how creatures are able to track their environments and respond accordingly to produce traits that allow them to succeed… More… …read more Source: icr.org

Scientists claim to have discovered DNA-like molecules inside specialized cells taken from a type of duckbill dinosaur. Could it be actual dino DNA?

By Ken Ham A team of researchers at Tel Aviv University in Israel decided to take a closer look at a common salmon parasite called Henneguya salminicola to determine how it could survive in low-oxygen salmon muscle tissue. What they found was startling—H. salminicola does not need oxygen at all! While there are single-celled bacteria that don’t need oxygen, this is the first multicellular organism they’ve found that doesn’t utilize oxygen. This parasite is in the same phylum as corals, jellyfish, and anemones, and it even has what looks like typical stinging cells, except H. salminicola doesn’t use them to
