Put another way, speciation is when one creature becomes two or more species.

“How the giraffe's long neck evolved has long been an evolutionary mystery” said a recent article.¹ For many decades it was thought by evolutionists (i.e. Darwin) that the impetus for a slowly elongating neck of the giraffe was reaching for high foliage on the African plains.

Scientific investigation and research continue to reveal the Hand of the Creator. In this case, it is the remarkable electric fish (ray-finned fish, or knifefish belonging to the order Anguilliformes). The electric organ of these fish found in Africa and South America is nothing short of amazing.

Dragonflies (order Odonata) are perhaps one of the most studied and appreciated insects in the world today. Like the hummingbird, the dragonfly is a master in the art of flight. New research has only increased the sheer amazement one has for this four-winged wonder.¹

An international team of scientists onboard the schooner Tara is conducting an ongoing oceanic global study. The research is part of the Tara Oceans Consortium and has identified 5,500 new RNA virus species that represent all five known RNA virus phyla (a taxonomic category). In addition, they have discovered “’an entire phylum, the Taraviricota, . . .
