Hello. Today we are in the presence of a 125-million-year-old Russian sturgeon fossil.

2
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:31,440
These sturgeons are currently faced with extinction and are only found in the Gulf of Mersin,

3
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:38,720
from which they take their Turkish name Mersin fish. The fish have moved there in recent years

4
00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:44,240
since they prefer high quality and very clean water. That is why they are also, unfortunately,

5
00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:49,600
rapidly becoming extinct today. Since pollution levels in the world's rivers and seas are rising

6
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:55,840
all the time, these animals have come to the point of extinction. Evolutionists try to suggest that

7
00:00:55,840 --> 00:01:01,440
the extinction among various life forms is evidence of evolution. For example, they think that the

8
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:06,560
disappearance of the dinosaurs some 60 million years ago in some way significantly supports the

9
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:14,320
idea of evolution. Take this 125-million-year-old Russian sturgeon fossil. How do we know it belongs

10
00:01:14,320 --> 00:01:21,040
to a Russian sturgeon? We can compare it to life forms living today. We look at their fins and skull

11
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:26,640
anatomy and body structure. One characteristic of sturgeons, for example, is that they have four

12
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:32,560
whiskers beneath their heads in the region of their mouths. And when paleontologists carefully examine

13
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:39,440
this fossil, they also see these whiskers in just the right place in these fossil remains. We can also

14
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:45,360
see a protrusion here. This life form is still living today, but its numbers are declining rapidly.

15
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:51,600
It has been included in conservation programs, but unless other measures are also taken, the Russian

16
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:58,480
sturgeon will soon become extinct. This has nothing to do with evolution, because we see no difference

17
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:05,840
between this fossil and living specimens. It has to do with pollution. The fins, its symmetrical structure,

18
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:12,240
its backbone structure, everywhere in its body and its habitat, all exhibit the appropriate characteristics.

19
00:02:15,920 --> 00:02:20,320
But the animal cannot survive in the wrong habitat when its habitat is excessively polluted.

20
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:25,040
It will become extinct unless measures are taken to clean up its environment

21
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:27,360
and join other living things that have become extinct.

22
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:38,800
Today's fossil is a 125 million year old Russian sturgeon and, like the other 400 million fossils that have been unearthed,

23
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:43,760
it has survived down to the present day with not even a single whisker being altered,

24
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:48,800
and thus represents proof of Allah's instantaneous and flawless creation.
