bacteria, ok that is an evolution, but I want evidence of evolution on a grand scale: talking dogs, flying monkeys, cats with thumbs, etc. I am not doubting but I want to see it.
I believe evolution is determined by a need required to survive, not one that makes it more convenient to survive. Dags have no need to talk, monkeys have no need to fly, cats do not need an opposable thumb. Certain humming birds developed a longer curved beak so that they could get the nectar in the flowers to survive. In humans the appendix has all but disappeared. We no longer have hair all over our bodies.... examples of evolution are all over. You just have to read about it and look.
