Evolutionary scientists recently studied 168 frog fossils from central Germany, concluding that the frogs all drowned while aggressively mating. They claim to have arrived at this preposterous assertion by the process of elimination. Unfortunately, the catastrophic burial of the frogs in the global Flood, the most obvious answer, was never considered. The German frog fossils were found in a sedimentary unit known as the Eocene (or … More… …read more Source: icr.org
In 2021, a fossil of an evidently beautiful bird the size of a bluejay was unearthed from sedimentary deposits in northeastern China. The bird—named Yuanchuavis—had a unique combination of different types of tail feathers not seen before. “It had a fan of short feathers at the base and then two extremely long plumes,” says [Jingmai O’Connor, a paleontologist at … More… …read more Source: icr.org
Once again, a recent and remarkable fossil discovery has been made challenging evolutionary theory. A strange arthropod (i.e. a radiodont) has been found in the Cambrian strata of the geologic column. Evolutionists reported a supposed primordial ancestor of spiders and insects in Canadian sediments called the Burgess Shale (located in the middle Cambrian).1 The Burgess Shale is “characterized by the presence of exq… More… …read more Source: icr.org

By Ken Ham With an estimated 30-foot wingspan, the newly discovered “dragon of death” would’ve been a sight to behold. This massive pterosaur, the largest ever uncovered in South America, was named Thanatosdrakon amaru, or “dragon of death,” by researchers who found a small collection of fossils from two individuals in the Andes mountains of Argentina. But was this creature really a “dragon of death”? Whatever it meant to creatures after the fall, before the fall the “dragon of death” was a vegetarian that lived on the wide variety of plants and fruits God created. Well, in a fallen world,

Evolutionary scientists recently determined that seafloor spreading has been slowing down.1 And they are not exactly sure of the reason. However, this is no surprise to Flood geologists. It’s exactly what we predicted.2,3,4 Scientists from Brown University and University of California, Santa Barbara examined the spreading rates at 18 different ocean ridges.1 Studying the magnetic seafloor reco… More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Ken Ham According to a popular evolutionary story, 66 million years ago an asteroid hit earth, forming a massive crater off the coast of Mexico and starting a chain of events including acid rain, massive wildfires, earthquakes, and tsunamis that eventually caused the extinction of the dinosaurs. And scientists may now have discovered bits of this asteroid, encased in amber. All of these findings point to a massive catastrophe—but what was the catastrophe? In yet-to-be-published research (so these claims have not undergone peer-review yet), researchers claim they’ve discovered minuscule bits of asteroid that were trapped in sticky tree sap

By Ken Ham A nearly complete ichthyosaur skeleton that was discovered in 2009 was also covered in a news article recently. It (and another partial fossil discovered in 1926) were described in the April 7 edition of the journal PeerJ. Both fossils were found in the Solnhofen limestone of southern Germany in early Tithonian (Late Jurassic) sedimentary layers. What grabbed my attention was the mention of soft tissue and blubber in a supposedly 150-million-year-old fossil. Now unlike soft tissue finds in T. rex and hadrosaurs, where the tissue was soft and viable, this “soft tissue” has been replaced by the

Some recent science news stories have come out describing fossils of insects feeding on plants supposedly many “millions of years ago.” What is amazing is the fossil plants and insects are just like the ones we find alive today.1 All that is different are the grossly inflated evolutionary ages (‘deep evolutionary time’) unnecessarily forced on them. These fossils are interesting because there is no evolution doc… More… …read more Source: icr.org

By Ken Ham I’ve used many words to describe evolution over the years, but I think I might have a new one which describes a recent fossil find: “disarming.” This pair of fossils (one of an adult specimen and one of a juvenile) of Nagini mazonense, a small snake-like animal (technically a molgophid recumbirostran) that supposedly lived about 308 million years ago, was discovered in the Francis Creek Shale of Illinois. The adult fossil specimen measures about 4 inches long (10 cm), and although it has reduced hind limbs, it has no pelvic girdle to support those limbs or front

Conventional geologists are still baffled by the Cambrian Explosion. Some try to deny that it was sudden,1 but most admit that Cambrian rocks record the sudden appearance of fossils from nearly every animal group. And the glaring lack of ancestors in rocks below the Cambrian increases the mystery.1 A new study of the Chengjiang Biota in Yunnan Province, China, tries to solve the mystery. The authors claim that… More… …read more Source: icr.org

In 1988 a fossil jaw was discovered by paleontologists in San Diego County, California. Decades later the scientists determined it belonged to a relatively unknown carnivore species of the machaeroidines (saber-toothed, placental mammals). The creature was named Diegoaelurus vanvalkenburghae and was about the size of a bobcat with teeth like slicing blades. So far, only 14 specimens belonging to the machaeroidines have been found.1More… …read more Source: icr.org
Evidence continues to accumulate that the Genesis Flood caused an ice age lasting hundreds of years.1 Creation scientists maintain there are two significant climate factors needed for an ice age. First, warm oceans are needed to increase evaporation, which ultimately generates extra rain near the equator and heavy snowfall in higher latitudes. Such conditions would build ice sheets atop the continents. Second, Earth&rsqu… More… …read more Source: icr.org
