8 ANIMAL EVOLUTION IN NATURE

1.SOME BIRDS DEVELOP BEAK SIZE -In some of his early work, Charles Darwin studied finches on the Galapagos Islands, documenting his theory of natural selection. Due to a number of factors.

2. POLLUTION DROVE THE COLOR CHANGE IN A POPULATION OF MOTHS-The peppered moth, historically, was a light-colored moth which adapted rapidly to the pollution brought on by the Industrial Revolution. 

3. BIRDS THAT ONCE SOARED ACROSS THE SKY LOSE THEIR WINGS-Were flightless birds always flightless? In a nutshell, no. Many modern flightless birds that we know so well today, such as penguins.

4. CAVE-DWELLING FISH LOSE EYES AND COLOR PIGMENTS DUE TO DARK ENVIRONMENT-The Mexican cave fish adapted to their surroundings by losing their eye structures completely. 

5. POTATO-EATING INSECTS BECOME RESISTANT TO MAN-MADE INSECTICIDES-An insecticide was made which proved particularly effective at controlling the beetle populations, and saving the potato agriculture.

6. GIRAFFE NECKS EVOLVED TO REACH HIGHER LEAVES, BUT ALSO TO COMPETE FOR A MATE-Giraffes developed elongated necks over time to fulfil two important biological needs: feeding and breeding.

7. ANTEATERS DEVELOPED NOODLE-LIKE TONGUES TO CONSUME ANTS-Anteaters have very bizarre tongues, acting like a long, sticky noodle used to quickly consume ants out of their nests. 

8. SNAKES DEVELOP A SPECIAL SPIDER-SHAPED TAIL-one snake species, the spider-tailed horned viper, developed a unique growth at the end of the tail which remarkably resembles a spider.
