[QUOTE="Yinlowang, post: 737559, member: 3168"] LucasPA, have a question for ya, trying to understand more about this stuff. If you have a population of say 100,000 critters and 20% or 20,000 have the slightly bigger middle toe. If 70% of the population dies to things not related to that feature, then 6,000 of the individuals with the big toe are remaining on average, right? OK, then of the remaining population of 6,000 big toes and 24,000 small toes, 100% of the big toes reproduce and say 90% of the small toes live long enough to reproduce then the next generation (assuming a litter of 5) you end up with 30,000 big toes and 108,000 small toes. Now 21.7% of the population have the big toe. Is that how it works? And then in the population of big toes, you have a certain percent that have even bigger toes, and of those some even bigger, etc where they are gaining "market share" so to speak. :) Is that anywhere close to right?
