Evolution On The March

A while ago, in another post I discussed the future of the planet without humanity, during which I included an update along these lines.

Prophetic Words About Evolution Without Humanity
Prophetic Words .......

Little did I suspect that evolution could be so quick ..... just  a few weeks later, comes the evidence of evolution on the march!

In Sweden, a family found (and killed) a King Rat of monstrous proportions in their kitchen.

Weighing in at about 2.2lb (a kilo), it measured 40cm (nearly 16in) plus tail .... OK so that's not quite the size of a Sheep or a Capybara .... but its not bad for a first effort, and everything has to start somewhere, even 'Evolution'.

    Perhaps we are seeing our replacements. Clever, adaptable, agile hands, and now big!

    Mind you, I saw a program on honey badgers in Africa. Tough as nails, fearless, and very smart. Would give even big rats a run for their money.

      I saw that program as well. Bloody minded little buggers as well.
