Flood geologists expect to find marine fossils mixed in the same layers as land animal and land plant fossils. We see it all over the world.1,2 Scientists can directly observe the results of massive waves, created by tectonic activity, that crashed across the continents.1 The global Flood caused many animals and plants to be transported both onto the land and offshore, too.
A recent discovery in Wales brings... More...
Tooth growth patterns in fossils of the mouse-like Jurassic mammal Krusatodon show that it grew slowly and had a “surprisingly long” lifespan compared to mammals of similar size today.1 A paper in Nature describes two “exceptionally complete” Krusatodon specimens, one an adult and the other a juvenile, that were found on Scotland’s Isle of Skye.2 The fossils are dated ...

Analysis of cut marks on Ice Age bones of a large armadillo-like glyptodont from Argentina suggests that humans killed and used these creatures for food.1,2 The cut marks belonged to fossil remains of a glyptodont in the genus Neosclerocalyptus that was discovered on the banks of the Reconquista River in eastern Argentina. By old-age reckoning, these bones are more than 20,000 years old. The cut marks were consistent with ... More...
There’s nothing more fascinating in the evening sky than the erratic flight of what looks like a bird but is actually a ravenous, feeding bat. Using their amazing sonar,1 they effortlessly capture their fill of insects in the dark.
The evolutionary explanation for bat origins is nonexistent. The fossil record contains no fossils documenting a non-bat ancestor becoming a bat. Paleontologists find only complete and... More...
Ankylosaurs are herbivorous dinosaurs found in flood rocks. They are classified in the reptilian order of Ornithischia or “bird-hipped” (having a hip design with ischium and pubis bones lying parallel and next to each other).
Their design is unique, with large and small bony shields (bony osteoderms) embedded in their skin and covering their sides and back. The small skulls have fused bony shields attached to the unde... More...
The effects of the Genesis Flood are seen worldwide with deposits of terrestrial animals, such as dinosaurs and many other kinds of animals, often mixed together with marine animals.1–3
Recently, an evolutionary story was published about ancient life along the coasts during the alleged “Age of Dinosaurs.” It included a new crocodilian animal unearthed from sediments in Nevada.4
N... More...
The phylum Arthropoda is the largest animal phylum on the planet. These animals are designed with paired, jointed appendages and a chitinous exoskeleton. ICR’s Dr. Tim Clarey stated,
Arthropods represent a major part of the great evolutionary mystery called the Cambrian Explosion. In fact, they are one of the most common fossils in Cambrian system strata. They appear in the rock layers fully forme... More...
Current news from the field of paleontology is what creationists expected and even predicted. Whether recent fossil discoveries are invertebrates or vertebrates, they will not document gradual evolutionary progression from one kind into another kind.
Some of the latest examples include a new species of extinct shark named Parvodus ominechonensis that was discovered in Japan.1 Scientists determined it belongs to ... More...
Geophysicist Samantha Hansen and colleagues may have just strengthened evidence for catastrophic plate tectonics (CPT), the leading theoretical model for explaining the Genesis Flood.1 Almost 40 years ago, creation scientist and geophysicist Dr. John Baumgardner suggested that the entire pre-Flood ocean floor logically must have been rapidly subducted into the earth’s mantle during the Flood cataclysm:2,3
