Black Leopard-Macroevoulution ?
I have recently heard on television that the Black Leopard has attained high population in the area around India. It has said that there has been substantal growth of this mutation in the last hundred years.
They have said that taxonomists may start to classify this population in India as a new species. It is claimed as an early documented case in history of macroevoulution.
I want to know other peoples take on this.

RE:
What does this have to do with macroevolution? A black leopard populating at high levels does nothing to prove this, IMO.
It provides a case for a microevolution, but not macro.

By definition macroevolution is a result of many microevolution events, so how does one observe it?AttentionKMartShoppers wrote:Wow, someone is looking for anything that looks like proof of macroevolution.....lol...black tiger is microevolution, and still a tiger...

The Cambrian Explosion shows no evidence of many microevolution events. Darwin cannot explain it, but it was a 5 million year macroevolutionary process

No it's not-macroevolution is not a build up of microevolution. If you have a build up of microevolution, you just have more variants of one kind of animal.BGoodForGoodSake wrote:By definition macroevolution is a result of many microevolution events, so how does one observe it?AttentionKMartShoppers wrote:Wow, someone is looking for anything that looks like proof of macroevolution.....lol...black tiger is microevolution, and still a tiger...

Exactly, you are correct, it is a setup, and you know where I am going, so you already have a response, which you can post as soon as I figure out how to include pictures rather than links.AttentionKMartShoppers wrote:I sense a trap....yes?
Humans have a penchant for putting things into boxes, even if there is a continuum of categories. For examples, race, grades, whatever.
Caption for second picture, preview is not same as post. [Now to figure out how to delete errant posts.] In fact, the color spectrum is continuous. Where does blue stop and green begin ? Given the conventional definitions of color, there are some shades of blue and green (green-blue and blue-green) that are closer in appearance than some shades of blue (violet-blue and green-blue). So it is with the definition of species; it is hard to tell where one stops and another starts. There are no proposed big jumps (e.g., raccoons do not give birth to cats) just as colors do not suddenly change in the spectrum; but if you look at both ends, blue and green are distinct colors. [Note that the definition of kinds - descendants of a pair of animals created by God - does have separate boxes.]
