  1. Water animals
    2. Whales The evidence of both comparative anatomy, physiology and the fossil record is that whales, dolphins and porpoises (Order Cetacea) originated from land mammals. However, the number and type of changes needed for whales (Sub-Orders Mysticeti - baleen whales and Odontoceti - toothed whales), in particular, and the comparatively short time- frame available (5-15 million years), is an insuperable problem for Darwinian evolution and is good evidence for Progressive Creation.
