"Given that evolution, according to Darwin, was in a continual state of motion ...it followed logically that the fossil record should be rife with examples of transitional forms leading from the less to more evolved. ...Instead of filling the gaps in the fossil record with so-called missing links, most paleontologists found themselves facing a situation in which there were only gaps in the fossil record, with no evidence of transformational intermediates between documented fossil species." (Schwartz, Jeffrey H., Sudden Origins, 1999, p. 89.)

The production of any individual fossil is a unique and unusual event - hence the gaps.

Take a walk in the woods - any woods. How many deer, squirrel, or bear skeletons have you ever found? Does that prove that they don't exist?
