If I may, I think what's happening here is that Slimebeast simply hasn't saw enough evidence that, on this case, there's any difference at all between these lizards. They might just be reacting, through the same mechanism, to their different habitats. Now, I think a simple experiment of taking a group from the south to the north and another from the north to the south could settle that well enough. That or sequencing their genomes :P |
He never sees enough evidence. Slimebeast has an automated response to refute evolution, regardless of what evidence is given to him. It takes a lot of work to try and get him to admit when something is an evolution.
And yes, they are reacting with this mechanism to the environment, but the ability to react with this mechanism will lead to natural selection. They may be the same now, but over many generations under the same environmental conditions these lizards will be very likely to evolve and become viviparous.
Ooo, I just got the strangest sensation of deja vu
