We love the composition of this by visitor @mrdieds. This is our Gallery of Evolution.
You will travel through 541 million years of evolution of life on this planet, stopping off at six key moments: the Cambrian explosion, the proliferation of aquatic life during the Devonian era, the conquest of land during the Carboniferous period, the swarming seas of the Jurassic era, the appearance of mammals in the Eocene period, and - as you see here - the impact of humans in the present day.
Evolution is of course not limited to the past: species continue to change. Today, human beings are having an undeniable impact on life on our planet. Artificial selection, genetic modifications, overfishing, selective hunting, the destruction of ecosystems, and the introduction of exotic species are all human factors that are causing important changes and even the extinction of many species.
