Such as; raccoons, bald eagles, and tigers. All species seem to be complete, with no trail of evolution within their on species. Meaning that there seems to be no through backs, animals born with some of the characteristics of there former stages of evolving. It's not that I do or don't believe in evolution, just curious.

a lot of actually solid solutions here, in spite of the undeniable fact that i've got yet to be certain an organism that, in this scientist’s opinion, surpasses all others in evolutionary prowess due the extremities it may stay to tell the story. The Waterbear, a very larger than microscopic animal, it is not a single celled organism and resembles a caterpillar. The carapace is uniquely dense for any such skinny and small creature. The Waterbear can certainly stay to tell the story in area; they stay over 4 hundred years, and can stay to tell the story YEARS in severe circumstances like 3 hundred stages and -a hundred and fifty stages Fahrenheit. They bypass right into a sort of hibernating state and solidify as though they have been a rock, then whilst circumstances quiet down they re-animate. it extremely is my prominent component… The Waterbear seems to thoroughly enter a suspended animation state in finished. They actually curl up and DIE whilst circumstances are undesirable, after which the 2nd circumstances calm backpedal they pull a bonified miracle of Jesus Christ (with the point to communicate, I’m an atheist.. so.. take that as you will) They resurrect and BAM. effective. i individually have self assurance that the Waterbear is an alien species and probably between the few that ok ought to exist on each and every planet in our image voltaic gadget or maybe previous. That’s no longer shown I in basic terms see the way it extremely is extremely accessible. for this reason I nominate the Waterbear because of fact the POSTER newborn for evolution. Its own evolution has introduced it to a factor the place it may shuttle by area, stay basically continuously, or maybe in a feeling time shuttle with none sort of technologies. enable’s see something do so. *winks* -J- founding father of Zodaccia included

The species are complete. They simply keep developing, adapting, and evolving to reach their highest potential at any certain time. If they are unable to do this, they become extinct. There are throwbacks in every species. Look at cows for example. There are regularly cattle that have some sort of characteristic that seperates them from the status quo. Just the other day, and I believe this made the news, a calf was born with two heads.

Animals are always born with former stages of evolution. At some point, humanoid creatures began walking upright. Humans still walk upright at this point do we not?

maybe you need a little experiment of your own to carry out at home.

Commonly known as Mexican Walking Fish = Axolotls
You can buy them in the pet shop, Axolotls are normally sold fully emerged in water.
So if you put in a large rock or wood. and watch the fish.
It will take some time.. Not a week not a month. But some time.
Your axolotl will slowly emerge from the water, even at first just letting its leg or tail out of the water to finally coming fully out of the water. - also did you know this type of fish also if it looses chucks off its body as in a fight with another fish, can grow back the missing limbs.

My point is, if you watch any type of animal be it human or not. we evolve grow develop maybe not something totally outstanding but indeed its a step forward, mentally, physically & emotionaly

With human differences, now days, we call that deformaties. And some spend alot of time correcting these so called deformatives so we can look all the same.
So maybe you need to do some research..
And see everything adapts and evolves to its living enviroment.

In evolutionary terms, all species are transitory. There are no fixed species at all.
There is much evidence of transition between species. Humans have a coccyx and an appendix, both organs which were useful in another form to our ancestors, but not to us. Whales and dolphins still have finger bones underneath their fins, indicating their ancestors once walked on earth. A platypus, although a mammal, still has a beak and lays eggs, the wings of a bat are constituted by a long finger bone running all the way down the wing, a frog has a breathing apparatus which lies somewhere between that of fish and reptiles, etc, etc...
There is also the fossil record, which show mammalian reptiles to have had characteristics of both mammals and reptiles, the archeopteryx being an animal somewhere between a bird and a reptile, etc...

There are. If you go into a cave you will see white fish without any eyes. You will also see crickets with similar characteristics.

A few feet from the cave entrance you will see fish and crickets that are identical in every way to their subterranean counterparts except for the fact that they have eyes and pigmentation. Two traits that are useless if there is no light.

This is most certainly evolution on a scale that only the most narrow minded could miss, but of course it is not an observable phenomena.

The designation of "intermediate" species vs. "complete" species is simply a matter of a human decision. If eagles are going to become flightless in 5,000 years, the stage they are in right now is transitional. If they are going to stay this way for 100 million years, it's probably not transitional. No given species is "incomplete" in it's given niche. Read "The Beak of the Finch" to understand this. The difference in species can be millimeters of beak length. Human perception is simply limited.

Many are in stages of development.

For many species development continues as the environment changes. Almost all of these changes are very small and incremental so they are not easily seen.

Also many species have settled into an evolutionary point of stability or plateau where their environment is stable and there is no evolutionary pressure to adapt to anything new.

Ever heard of the marine iguanas of the Galapagos Islands? They have evolved to fit their surroundings in which it is beneficial for them to swim. These islands are so separate from the rest of the world that you can see a variance among species between the mainland (South America) and the islands. Darwin did research of the animals of the Galapagos.

You clearly have never studied animals, evolution or archeology because if you had you would realize just how silly your question is.

how do you know theyre complete, perhaps they are constantly changing, so slowly, that in a short period it is unnoticeable
