It would certainly make everyone stop and start looking for more observations. It would not destroy the concept of evolution through filtered mutations, but it would certainly show that there was still a major gap in the extent of our knowledge.

Now if, on the otherhand, we found clear evidence of modern mammals existing, say, 300 million years ago, then everyone would be back to the drawing board.

?????????

I don't understand what you're asking.

Is that a quote from something I said? If so, I need to know where it originated so I can see the context.

What do you mean by "the current one or the hypothesis?"

Re: on and off

Eastern black bears require forests for survival, but not just any wooded area will do.

That is from Vermont Fish & Wildlife

What you describe is actually very close to what biologists find. For example, the Georgia Department of Natural Resources is currently running a gentic study of Red Drum. Tagging studies have shown that the Red Drum population is local. They have a specific territory and stay within that territory. The genetic results are expected to be available in 2009 or 2010 and it will be interesting to see if infact, there are genetic differences between the different populations of Red Drum.
