Survival of the Weirdest
Photograph by Robert Clark
If bones could speak, this skeleton of a bulldog at the American Museum of Natural History would testify to unnatural selection brought on by the breeder's whim. "Artificial selection allows really weird characteristics, like this protruding lower jaw to be fixed in a breed," says the museum's mammalogist Richard Monk. He asserts that the body type of the bulldog would not develop naturally. One need only look to the wolf for the form nature prefers.
