Can anyone tell me if evolution has ever been shown correct on any occasion?

[QUOTE="Sibelius, post: 21763519, member: 139232"] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] [/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2]Yeah, it's complex. My field is canine genetics. One example from my current work is how certain combinations of breeds form unfit offspring. From today's TimesOnline: 'Crossing a pug and a pekinese has produced an animal with such a distorted face that its eyes kept popping out'. I read about some work done creating crosses between very small and large breeds. Some of the resulting crosses ended up with a set of extra long front legs or back. Obviously not darwinian ideals of fitness for thier environment. As I understand it, a likely theory is that we as a species being so successful killed off our closest relatives through expansion, competition and hybridisation. [/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] On the subject of genetic closeness, this is from an article at the BBC entitled 'Chimps genetically close to humans': [/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
