Evolution and Elephant Tusks

Because of hunting and such (a variation on natural selection), tusks are fading. Amazingly, Darwinists are claiming that this is evidence of evolution. Not hardly! Groucho Marx said something ir-relephant to this topic:


Actually, there is. Elephants are losing their tusks to some extent.

Elephants are losing their tusks, and evolutionists are claiming that this loss of a trait is evidence *for* evolution.

Evolution is the acquiring new traits through added genetic information. Evidence does not support evolution, but what is observed supports what is to be expected from the biblical account.
Elephants’ tusks are getting shorter—with an increasing proportion of the elephant population even being completely tuskless—and it’s widely being heralded as ‘evolution’ and ‘Darwinism in action’.

Outspoken atheist Richard Dawkins refers to the phenomenon in his book, The Greatest Show on Earth—the evidence for evolution, in the chapter titled “Before our very eyes”. The speed of the change has surprised many. Dawkins points out in that chapter that “Darwin himself picked out [elephants] as one of the slowest-reproducing animals, with one of the longest generation turnovers” and he opines that, in reference to the speedy reduction in tusk size, “We would not expect to see it within one human lifetime.”
