Biologists teach that all living things on Earth are related. Is there any solid evidence to back this claim? Join us as we explore the facts! We start with a close look at the origin of whales from land mammals, and then touch on the origins of several other critters, including our own species.

If you want to learn more about whale fossils and evolution, we have articles for you to enjoy on our website!

To learn more about whale embryos, check out the work of Dr. Hans Thewissen here: web.neomed.edu/web/anatomy/DLDD/index.html

For an in-depth view of whale evolution, read Dr. Hans Thewissen's new book "The Walking Whales" www.ucpress.edu/book.php?isbn=9780520277069

Corrections:

Dolphin embryos shown in this animation come from spotted dolphins. Adult is a dusky dolphin.

    I currently go to a christian school, my teacher showed us this video to prove that evolution isn't real, not realizing that this is a pro evolution video. Then when she realized it went on about how this video is fake and a lie.
  • @Creaform003
    Video gives three separate lines of evidence to support evolution. Creationists: But where is the evidence!?!
  • @lorann-ut5cq
    kae My favorite v2de0 is "Ergonomover and the ostrich" which shows the evolution from a man to a g-1bbon.
  • @doranbregovic
    Any intelligently designed thing is proof of an intelligent maker, but of course only intelligent beings can acknowledge that.

    Hippos are vegetarian but they ain't bringing it up in every conversation, just saying

    frtg V3de0 "Exposing the biggest troll of the century - the ballet dancer Andrew Eldridge aka ergonomover", time 4:33 u can see how the same rtrd insists that dogs and wolves are different species because....dogs are a subspecies of wolves. He doesn't even understand the relationship between a set and its subsets.

    ghtyh Absolutely a beautiful one from Newton: In want of other proofs, the thumb would convince me of the existence of a God.
  • @nickm655
    When all the comments are about creation vs evolution but i'm just here because my Biology teacher linked a video to do an assignment
  • @ballshippin3809
    Creationist still be like: "I don't care what you say, I still haven't seen a monkey evolve into a human so evolution is still false!"

    abc Very beautiful, from Dawkins: if you look at the details of biochemistry, molecular biology, you might find a signature of some sort of designer.
  • @doranbregovic
    I really do love the laws of thermodynamics. Because they prove the universe was created.

    If the spaghetti monster isn't real then why are he planets shaped like meatballs?!
  • @RandallWilks
    Did anyone hear about the creationist that won a Nobel Prize for disproving evolution?.......... Yeah, neither did I.

    This video is playing on a loop at the San Diego Natural History Museum. Well done!

    Absolutely beautiful and powerful one from James C. Maxwell: Science is incompetent to reason upon the creation of matter itself out of nothing. We have reached the utmost limit of our thinking faculties when we have admitted that because matter cannot be eternal and self-existent it must have been created.
