Then why are there still monkeys? ;) |
because creatures can't change into something they aren't. A worm, for example, could never change into a centipede because a centipede is not a worm with legs. These two creatures are completely different. What are the limits to change? I don't know....that would be an excellent thing for science to experiment with...unfortunately, however, they never have....so who knows. |
Wow. The ark must have been crammed to the rafters then. Unless Noah had some kind of "Honey, I Shrunk every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort" technology.

But, what about a monkey living near water?
