Cicadas are an unusual-looking insect belonging to the order Hemiptera (the true bugs, including bed bugs and aphids). If you live in the eastern United States or in the Midwest, you have undoubtedly heard their long raucous calls on summer days. They produce their characteristic sound via unique structures called tymbals.

Fish evolution remains an enigma. Evolutionists can only say fish first “appeared” over a half-billion years ago.¹ Creationists recognize fish have always been fish since their creation just thousands of years ago. Indeed, when fish are found entombed in sedimentary rock they are always fish, not their alleged evolutionary relatives.

Ichthyosaurs are marine reptiles that occur globally in the same rock layers as dinosaurs. Specimens with babies support the idea that they gave live birth, unlike most of today’s reptiles.
