It's a common phenomenon. If a species doesn't adapt, they die out.

I hate the word adaptation because it implies an active changing process. It is like the old theory that giraffes got log necks by trying really hard to reach leaves. (very wrong) This is rarely how evolution works. A species becomes adapted but an individual almost never adapts in a way that contributes to future generations.

The key deer doesn't really speak to macro-evolution one way or the other. It's a subspecies of white tailed deer. The principles are found in animal husbandry. Think of a toy and a standard poodle. Now explain to me what the last common ancestor of oak trees and elephants was and where did he go?

I don't think that anyone has a problem with he concept of adaptation. What most creationists object to is the idea that complex life evolved from simple forms by chance without God's intervention, and that death (I.E.: survival) was the driving mechanism for making human intelligence and moral reasoning.

Natural selection favoring smaller, "dwarf" populations on islands with limited foraging ranges is a common phenomenon. Dwarf mammoths (if you'll forgive the oxymoron) were the last to die out, less than 4,000 years ago.

If you want to see evolution, just go get another flu vacination each year....the only reason a new one is required is because the old virus has evolved into a new strain that is resilient to last years cure...

There is plenty of evidence AGAINST EVOLUTION:.
First, the 'Cambrian explosion'...... the millions of fossil types in Cambrian rock (oldest fossil bearing rocks) appear suddenly and fully formed and without any previous forms...IOW, there are no transitional forms.
Most well educated evolutionists, when forced to, will admit it, but very unwillingly, and even then they always want to seem to make new excuses for it. Usually they just don't say anything about it and hope noone finds out.

Adaptation is part of evolution.
