Doesn't everyone feel that way when they learn something new, and vital?

But don't you also now feel a closer kinship with huge family of ungulates across the world? Cows, antelope, manatees, dolphins, hippos, elephants, caribou, bison, buffalo, yaks, oxen.

. Recent discoveries even appear to warrant the addition of the Cetaceans (whales and dolphins). All of these groups appear to have arisen from a common Condylarth ancestor nearly 90 million years ago.
Remember, dolphins and whales were mammals that moved back to the sea after being upon land.

And there have been whales found with legs. Sometimes the genetic code to turn off the original leg code doesn't work and legs sprout anyway.
