"Why do we find no fossilized examples of any of these creatures that were part one specie and part another?" Mostly because they were never fossilized. The fossil record is not perfect by any stretch. It is only rare geological events that have frozen certain biological events at a point in time so we may look at them. The earth will sometimes have stretches of millions of years where no volcanic activity will freeze biological events or completely destroy them so there is no record. In this period of millions of years several obviously important transitions have taken place. "Why do we find no fossilized examples of any of these creatures that were part one specie and part another?" Or perhaps, maybe there are none and maybe we have and can't recognize them. I'm sure the right answer is a logical one.

When you look at the replica of the Mayflower, you can appreciate how much bigger we are than our ancestors of just a few hundred years ago. This is a fallacy. It was an aspect of engineering and cost for the ship, and diet for the people. People were skinny and malnourished. They have not evolved to their new heights. They were nourished to them. Chinese people grow tall on an American diet. We had a 6'1" Chinese 3rd generation guy on our basketball team in high school. part one specie The singular and plural of species is species. Specie is money.
