Sometimes scientists can be dim.
"These guys are the losers...we don't understand why they're still around!"
They're still around because they're NOT losers...obviously! <lol>
Species diversity and a high rate of change means that the animals aren't well adapted to their environment. If they were, they would not HAVE to change. Why is this obvious to me, but not to those guys?
Crocodiles evolved a design that allowed them to survive several MAJOR ecological disasters on this planet, including the one that wiped out the large reptiles prior to the rise of the dinosaurs, the ones that wiped out huge families of dinosaurs several times, the one that wiped out all of the dinosaurs except for the birds, and the ice age, and this guy wants to claim they are evolutionary losers? What is he on?
