It used to be a respectable field. Now it's a meme degree for popsci fedoras who want to be Dick Dockins.

It's a fucking mess now that genetical analysis has usurped physiology/anatomy in terms of species relation, but it's still applicable. We're still sorting out phylogenetic trees based on this shift but there are still many uses for evolutionary bio
Isaiah Roberts
this is complete BS
Also, where the fuck can you even find degrees solely on evolutionary biology? Is this a US thing?
Logan Long
any bio person know if behavioral ecology/behavioral systematics the real deal?

Yes, the "philosophy"of birds having different lengths of beaks to get food easier.
Michael Myers
Micro not macro. Modern example of macro needed.
John Morales
I think you can get all sorts of gimmicky degrees in the US

Active speciation is still observable.

>that a day not a milennia, modern example of a milennia needed.
the alternative is populations ceasing to vary and mutate at an arbitrary wall. I have quite a few phylogenetic tree's in my office I would like to share with you....
