when i saw this video it blew my mind for a second...i've just never seen a gorilla doing it. it's very meaningful in a time-less way...watching the baby-steps of evolution can be pretty beautiful in my opinion...
Yes, you have never seen it before, I have. I have seen dogs who can walk on two legs, does that mean millions of years from now dogs will walk on two legs?
id say there's plenty of articles citing how animals are creating adaptations to their environment. what you're referring to depends more on when a 'credible scientist' decides that whatever adaptation their seeing is worthy of calling the animal a new species.

Never said I was smarter, also never said evolution is incorrect or correct.
I said I wish I could live a million years to see whether Evolution is actually correct.
At the moment evolution is faith based.
Micro evolution happens, but evolution where one specie produces another, needs millions of years of observation, to be a fact.
A Gorilla walking straight doesn't mean evolution, a Gorilla walking straight means the Gorilla has the ability to walk straight, and one Gorilla decided he wants to be different.
Humans have the same ability, I seen humans who wear ridiculous cloths which I have never seen before. It doesn't mean evolution, it means humans have the ability to wear what ever the want, and one human decided to be different.
In the end, it isn't evolution, it is choice. It isn't something mysterious, it isn't something complicated, it isn't something new, nor surprising.
Have you seen someone eat with their feet, clean the house with their feet, brush their tooth with their feet. Basically do everyday which you normally do with your hand, with your feet.
That simply means we have that ability, it doesn't mean evolution.
Natasha, a 5-year-old black macaque at the Safari Park near Tel Aviv, began walking exclusively on her hind legs after a stomach ailment nearly killed her, zookeepers said.

Just hoping no one puts a DVD player in front of him with a
copy of the Planet of the Apes running, or we are all going to be in big trouble.
