One of the favourite "weakpoints" that creationists love to attack is that of the evolution of horses. However, it looks like one of the proverbial missing links has been discovered. And by an 8 year old boy no less.
The new fossil is of a three toed horse, a step between the five toed ancestors and the modern day, one toed horses.
Of course, instead of filling one gap, we all know this only creates two new ones.
Way to go kid.
Update: Check comment for more information on how this fits into the bigger understanding of horse evolution. Thanks to Josh Rosenau for passing along the info.
