Whales are incapable either of living or breeding on land.You're going to need to provide some citations to back up these claims. Unsourced assertions aren't going to cut it.Whatever these transitional creatures were, they were not whales, nor were they proto-whales.
There were so many flaws and gaps in the assumptions presented by Gingerich et al, that their conjecture can only be received as wishful thinking.
These transitional forms have been debunked, along with all the others.
The only difference between these proto-whales and the dino-bird is that the fossils were not deliberate hoaxes. But neither were they the fossils of any marine creature.
