'Walking' fish give clues to evolution of life on land

A primitive, air-breathing fish walks much better when it's raised on land rather than in the water. In fact, its skeleton even changes to turn it into a better walker. The discovery may provide clues to how Earth's first swimmers evolved and adapted to start living on land.

Skeletons of primitive fish adapt as they take to land

  1. Let me settle the evolution debate once and for all: Evolution was an inside job, because the Earth is getting cooler, and the flag on the moon landing video is waving, which clearly violates the laws of thermodynamics. In addition, I have no idea what "theory" means. Disproven. Palin/Jesus 2016.
