"And there is MY point, that there SHOULD be lots of UNCOMPLETED mutated things (for lack of a better description) found in most ALL species now; just WAITING for the final 'mutation' to fall into place, evolving new CREATURE."

Actually; no there shouldn't be any "uncompleted mutated things" [to use your term] because mutations accumulate over thousands of years. There are species living now that have accumulated mutations that make them intersterile with remote ancestors. That is what you should have and do have.

There is a persistent problem with many of those who criticize evolution of trying to take it "forward" or trying to demand a "current" instance of the development of a new species. The fact is that every living species is a "current instance." The only difference among them in terms of their evolutionary history is the length of time between them and the last remote ancestor with whom they are intersterile.
