If you thought hybrids were bad...

Uh oh. Does this mean that if I hang out with the wolves too much, that any future children of mine might be werewolves?
 
Money saving idea... maybe I can put a tick on a Palmetto, then a scaleless, then I can put it on my mortal corns and just wait for the magic to happen...

They don't call them "milksnakes" for nothing!

HAHAAA!!
Maybe the old-time farmers were right. The milksnakes really WERE suckling on the cow udders out of pure ancient instinct! :roflmao:

I can totally see it. :p

At last, a connection between reptiles and mammals. Though I'm still looking for the link between when animals that lay eggs and hatch self-sufficient young -and- mammals that give birth to young which remain dependent on their parents care. Like, what's the evolutionary advantage of that?
 
Yes, reptiles and mammals share evolutionary ancestors hundreds of millions of years ago, so we share some genes with reptiles.
 
Yes, we are taught mammals share evolutionary ancestors, but -
where are the reptiles that nurse their young?
where are the birds that give birth?
where are the mammals that lay eggs?
Please show me the fossils.
 
All I can say is wow. Discussions like this are reasons I think everyone should have at least one class in anthropology and or evolution at the college level.... I'm seriously hoping this is a joke. Evolution is a scientific fact.

They are reading these words right now...they're called mammals.

Birds are living dinosaurs. They are apart of the same family as T-rex. This group of dinosaurs are all egg layers.

This question has already been answered. Also, MANY extinct mammals were egg layers.

There are literately buildings full of mammal fossils. Visit a good museum or get some good books on the subject.


Are you joking or being serious? I really can't tell. But...
Mammals evolved alongside the dinos. There are mammal fossils aged to about 170 million years ago. There is a whole section at your local library about evolution and many great new books at your local book store. I highly recommend learning about this subject. If there is any subject that can truly expand your mind this is it. Besides biology, students of evolution will learn geology, chemistry, genetics & DNA etc etc etc. Evolution is probably the most important subject to "get" if you want to understand the rest of this universe you live in. Just in the past decade we have learned truly amazing things about the mechanics of evolution and it's a exciting time to be alive...at least it is for those with a curious mind.
Of course, you may not care to understand the universe or your own evolution as a mammal. That's up to you.
