Message: <blockquote data-quote="PlunkettsGhost" data-source="post: 64739" data-attributes="member: 198">Whale Evolution - Part 4Who knew whale nipples were so fascinating! Let us consider the amazing transformations that "natural selection" would accidently have had to stumble on to make the feeding of baby whales possible:Picture the conversion (if u can) of a land mammal into a marine mammal. Each stage, of course must make the animal "fitter" (That's how natural selection works apparently)  for existence than it was before. A land mammal must firstly transform itself into a seal like creature.This involves giving up the use of its hind legs and dragging them around behind it in a useless fashion for a very Long time until said legs fuse together into some sort of seal like composition. Anyone see survival issues at this vulnerable stage? No? I shall continue...Next, the pelvis needs to shrink and the portion of the body behind the pelvis must somehow twist round on the front part so that the sides come uppermost and undermost, and the lateral motion of the "seal" is converted to the vertical whale-like motion.Moreover whales give birth to their young in the oceans and they suckle underwater. Before the first infant is ever conceived, in fact (millions of years b4 the said event) the mother needs to have evolved special muscles to jet the milk into the mouth of the young to prevent dispersion underwater. She also has to develop a cap round the nipples into which the snout of the young fit, water tightly.The young also requires to have its windpipe prolonged above its gullet to prevent ejected milk going into the lungs. All these modifications have to happen, clearly, Long before the first young are ever born into the environment for which these modifications are required. They aren't going to happen over night. There can clearly be no intermediate stages for these biologically necessary setups in the marine environment as young would invariably drown, and so these changes would not be selected for.The prescient power of natural selection is something to behold!
