Re: Adding alleles prevents evolution from occurring

Of course not. Don't be silly. I'm using the breeding situation as an example of the principle involved. Just as you wouldn't maintain your breed if you allowed alien alleles into it, nature wouldn't be producing the neat clearcut examples of species that it in fact does. You know, lions that ALL look amazingly just like lions and so on
But, on the face of it, hyenas look more like dogs than like cats. However, hyenas are genetically more closely related to cats and meerkats than to dogs. More closely related to lions than to wolves. What "kind" did old Noah put on the Ark for hyenas?
Edited by Pressie, : Chaged the spelling of Hyenas to hyenas.
