High Speed Evolution

The next time someone around you casts doubt on the work of Darwin, you can now offer the humble green anole and this article from the University of Texas Austin as proof of the theory of evolution.

Here's an excerpt from the article...

"After contact with the invasive species, the native lizards began perching higher in trees, and, generation after generation, their feet evolved to become better at gripping the thinner, smoother branches found higher up.

"The change occurred at an astonishing pace: Within a few months, native lizards had begun shifting to higher perches, and over the course of 15 years and 20 generations, their toe pads had become larger, with more sticky scales on their feet."

It's just another boot to the head of the anti-science rabble
