Why can't you scientists be more open-minded? Have you ever considered the possibility that these creatures lived within rocks? Just as they were found. Well, have you considered it? Huh? HUH!!! No, of course not. Because you're so biased in favor of your dogma! But we can see right through you. You're not fooling anyone. HAHAHAHAHA!!

Couldn't have said it much better myself.

Why do you think this is anything other than a duck? Apparently, the allegation that it's a gabillion years old has no bearing on whether it can still be an extant species.

Did you see this earlier post: 11 million year old extinct animal alive and well...

The Rock Rat is a living representative of a taxonomic FAMILY thought extinct. Learn what words mean.

There is nothing that says this can't happen.

The SToE can contend with previously considered extinct organisms being found to be extant because there is no mechanism which sets a hard and fast maximum limit to the number of generations a species can have.

Do you know of some mechanism that would?

On the other hand, finding a fossil of a human in precambrian rock would be difficult to explain.
