Let me be to first to welcome you to the Hypography Sci-Tech forums! We're glad to have you with us

 

Now to your question. I don't think that example would result in any "darwinistic" evolution, because the squirrels are going to have to cross the road to find new sources of food and shelter, therefore crossing roads is just a "required risk". Now there might be a possiblity that they will learn to avoid running in front of vehicles, but that wouldn't really be evolution, just learning.

hey thanks. yeah i guess that is the point i was trying to make, are we causing a breed of car intellient squirrels to be born, and those that don't follow that pattern, (crossing when a car is too close) that would be the natural selection process, since only those squirrels that don't cross in front of cars live and spread there genes. Does that mean that those squirrels are smarter or just have a better sence of timing and spatial relational judgement. Anyhow just curious, thanks again.

Welcome, Scientist03!

 

Actually there are some 20-30 people visiting quite often, while hundreds read the postings. Our membership is up to more than 150.

 

It's not enough people for there always to be someone "online", but response is usually quick.

 

All the best,

Tormod
