EVOLUTION.>>>

That is not an example of evolution. Not that I don't believe in evolution, but that you think that a species making another species extinct is evolution? Not hardly.

[P.O.E.]

Not to be picky, but part of natural selection is the ability to defend against predators, from the microbial to the more complex.

I will need to reflect on your response.

Good morning.
"...but that you think that a species making another species extinct is evolution? Not hardly."

Why not? A less evolved member of a group is killed while a more evolved member of the same group may triumph, or escape to breed.

I think an example would be the white moths that were made visible by pollution in Britain. More evolved moths were born gray, thus were harder for moth killers to see. Gray moths survived while the white moths went extinct.
