Mammal Twins that Defy Homology
TWO UNRELATED EXTINCT
MAMMALS WITH GIANT TEETH
Another example of extraordinary resem-
blance between placental and marsupial
mammal "twins," is that between the extinct
mammals Smilodon (below) and Thylacos-
North American wolf skull milus (above), both predators with enor-
mous front teeth. The great degree of
resemblance between the skull and teeth
structures of these two mammals, between
which no evolutionary relationship can be
established, overturns the homological
view that similar structures are evidence in
favour of evolution.
Tasmanian wolf skull
TASMANIAN WOLF AND ITS NORTH AMERICAN COUNTERPART
The presence of "twin" species between marsupial and placental mammals
deals a serious blow to the claim of homology. For example, the marsupial Tas-
manian wolf (above) and the placental wolf found in North America resemble
each other to an extraordinary degree. Above can be seen the skulls of these
two highly similar animals. Such a close resemblance between the two, which
cannot be suggested to have any "evolutionary relationship", completely invali-
dates the claim of homology.
