Ah Stripe, you never fail. I come up with a specific suggestion, even suggested a specific experimental animal, that one of the creation scientists can use, given current technology to blow evolution and a long time scale out of the water and all I get is one of your icons.

Wow, in the last 4,000 years, lions and tigers have diverged from a common ancestor, and possibly all the cats descend from a single "kind" that Noah took aboard the ark. I guess all the bears were represented by a single "bear kind" on the ark as well!
What that means is that creationists believe in not just evolution, but a souped-up hyper-evolution on steroids. If you believe that tigers and lions diverged into their present states in just 4,000 years, you should have no trouble at all in accepting that all vertebrates diverged from a common ancestor in the last few hundred million years. In fact, at the rate they apparently believe, creationists should expect that all the vertebrates could evolve in less than a million years.
Check in to Dog breeding sometime. You would be amazed at what they have done with breeds in just a few years. Not 4000 years!

Yep, and give your pedigrees free range to mate as they choose and pretty soon all you'll have is mutts. Whereas you can give mutts free range to mate and find you'll wait a long time before you'll see a dachshund.

Dogs can still breed with one another. Can a housecat breed with a lion and produce offspring? Bobcats can't even produce offspring with housecats.
Did you know the DNA of domestic dogs are all virtually genetically identical despite their different appearance?
Did you know that's not even close to the case with the cat family?
