In a world where time travel is not possible there is no way to observe evolution directly as each species changes and diversifies . In order to better understand the process and its effect on species we must observe them and their ancestors ‚ by observing we can find similarities between these animals as well as the differences and how each one has adapted differently to its own environment.
