Did Fossil Birds Live Longer than Today's Birds?

Did Fossil Birds Live Longer than Today

The Bible matter-of-factly states that humans living before and shortly after the Genesis Flood had centuries-long lifespans (Genesis 5 and 11). Yet the Bible gives no indication that this remarkable longevity was supernatural. If such human longevity was indeed natural, then early animals likely also had very long lifespans, since almost any conceivable cause for greater human longevity (fewer DNA mutations, a more optimal environment, etc.) would also have affected the animals. This would include birds, and a new proposal for why fossil ...More...

Designed to Fill the Waters

Marine invertebrate animals (jellyfish, crabs, snails, etc.) thrive within our global ocean, the largest habitable space on Earth. Their adult forms are commonly found on or within seafloor (benthic) habitats worldwide, from intertidal zones to the deepest plains and trenches that have been explored. It is estimated that these creatures account for more than 92% of marine animal diversity across all major ocean basins.1 The discovery of ...More...

The Jaw-Dropping Design in Hawaii's State Fish

Hawaiians call their state fish the humuhumunukunukuapua’a, or humuhumu for short, and snorkelers marvel at its wild paint job as it flits beneath basalt reefs. Scientifically named Rhinecanthus rectangulus, it is one of a variety of triggerfish that are named for a “trigger” used to lock the dorsal spine in an “up” position. Two aspects of the wonderful humuhumu reveal its Creator’s ...More...

Oysters and Pre-Flood Longevity

The oyster species Crassostrea virginica, also known as the eastern oyster, is a prized seafood. Research has demonstrated that a fossil version of the Crassostrea oyster lived much longer than its modern-day counterparts. Called Crassostrea titan because of its large size, it provides evidence that at least some animals in the pre-Flood world experienced much longer lifespans, just as humans did (Genesis 5).
