In the animal kingdom, many types of creatures use stereo vision to determine the distances between them and visible objects. In humans, each of our eyes records a slightly different version of what is observed. These two different views are then accurately merged in our brains to produce a single image—computationally using the differences between the two images to allow us to visually gauge depth and distance. This process, referred… More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Dr. Nathaniel T.

By Ken Ham As we’ve reported numerous times on our site, scientists have observed lizards evolving into lizards, salmon evolving into salmon, moths into moths, mice into mice, bedbugs into bedbugs; and more lizards into lizards! I must admit, the evidence that organisms evolve into organisms like themselves is pretty overwhelming! Of course, I say that tongue-in-cheek, but examples of adaptation, speciation, and natural selection are used over and over again as evidence for molecules-to-man evolution—but they’re not! What they really show are examples of what God’s Word teaches—everything reproduces according to their kinds. Lizards produce lizards, salmon …read more

Dr. Christopher Gardner, director of nutrition studies at the Stanford Prevention Research Center, and his colleagues conducted a study on 609 overweight and obese adults living in San Francisco’s Bay Area. Nutritionists coached the adults not to bother with counting calories. They should eat until they felt full, but eat plenty of vegetables and whole foods. The study results held a few surprises. First, the study pa… More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Troy Lacey Researchers found that sexual size dimorphism may be limiting South American lizards’ speciation. Males and females of the same species may be filling ecological niches usually filled by separate species. Is this an example of evolution in action or a designed adaptive feature input into the lizard kind’s genome? …read more Source: AIG Daily

The planaria, a type of flatworm, has an amazing capacity to regenerate a new body from just fragments of tissue. Its genome has just been sequenced. The surprising result is a completely unexpected evolutionary conundrum. Planarians (S. mediterranea) are a type of freshwater flatworm commonly found between about 3 to 15 mm in length.1 Their size can actually self-adjust within a 50-fold range depending on the… More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Ken Ham A recent article from Live Science proclaimed, “Oldest Fossil of ‘Missing Link’ Dinosaur Discovered in Germany.” Now, the actual find was not quite that sensational—no “missing link” involved. Actually, there wasn’t even a dinosaur involved! What they found was another fossilized Archaeopteryx specimen—a crow-sized bird with teeth and claws on its wings, as many now-extinct birds had (though penguins still have teeth and hoatzins have claws as juveniles). They found this fossil lower in the rocks than other specimens have been found. Because it’s found in supposedly lower rocks (based on the “index fossil,” in this case

By Ken Ham For most insects, getting eaten is the end—but not for the remarkable bombardier beetle. These little beetles are often discussed in creation literature because of their incredible design features, including the ability to shoot a boiling, noxious gas so they can escape predators. But, according to new research, the bombardier beetle has another trick. Researchers in Japan fed bombardier beetles to toads to see what would happen. Well, nearly half of the toads puked up the beetles anywhere from 12 to 107 minutes after ingesting them. The hardy little beetles scurried off, apparently unharmed. It turns out

By Ken Ham When you think of fossils, you probably picture dinosaurs, trilobites, or other exotic and extinct creatures. But did you know there are many examples of much more familiar creatures throughout the fossil record? A Order your copy of Living Fossils today! And, contrary to what the article states, these ducks are certainly not the only example of modern birds buried with dinosaurs. We find fossilized parrots, albatrosses, loons, owls, flamingos, penguins, sandpipers, and more buried in the same layers as dinosaurs. And one evolutionary researcher claimed that such evidence supports the idea that “most or all of

By Ken Ham There seems to be no end to the variety of amazing creatures being discovered preserved in amber in Myanmar. We’ve written on a supposed “feathered dinosaur” (it was just a bird), beautiful flowers, and a tiny chameleon that have all been found stuck in the sticky tree resin that later hardened to preserve them. And now researchers have found a beautifully preserved spider with a tail longer than its body. Apparently the new species “looks just like a spider, with common body parts including fangs and four [pairs of] legs that are specifically used for walking.” The

By Dr. Alan Gillen According to Genesis, everything was not only good as God pronounced it to be, but He pronounced it very good. Therefore, it is evident that disease has no origin in the beginning; furthermore, disease itself was not created, because that would not be consistent with God’s nature and the perfect creation. …read more Source: AIG Daily

By Ken Ham Birds of paradise, gorgeous birds found in Indonesia and my home country of Australia, apparently have feathers that are unique among birds. Many male birds of paradise have very black feathers. They are so black that one researcher says if you focus on the bird you “almost feel a little woozy” trying to look at them. Why do they have such black feathers? According to recent research, their feathers are so black because they are fundamentally different in shape from other black feathers. On a microscopic level, the feather doesn’t lie like other feathers, which overlap and

Darwinists who want to make a strong case for evolution will routinely avoid certain biological topics—chiefly because those topics resist all gradualist explanations. One is the unique and complex method by which insects grow. Metamorphosis (from Greek words meaning ‘change of form’), describes how most insects change from juveniles to adults, often developing adult body structures and ways of life completely different from those of their youth. While the juvenile of a particular species may look like a glorified worm, the adult might have five-centimetre (2-inch) wings and no functioning jaws. Let’s examine the life of a moth.

Bats are found throughout America, but in certain areas of the country (e.g., the southwest) bats are the reason tourists visit. They gather and watch these mammals surge into the evening sky.
