Regarding whale hips:

Skeleton of a baleen whale.

Skeleton of fossil whale Basilosaurus with hip closeup.

From a Slide Show On Whales as Evidence for Evolution for a Debate Between Dr. Ben Waggoner and the Notorious Kent Hovind. (No idea how it went.)

One caution before AndrewC jumps in with his usual correction: Mesonychus is in there. Mesonychus is what the DNA cast doubt upon, to the benefit, not the discrediting, of hippos. Dr. Waggoner was aware of the DNA evidence for hippos, but this slideshow is from before the latest from the fossil record came in.
