Why humans don't have tails?

Researchers identify a unique DNA mutation that's at least partly responsible for the loss of our ancestors' tails. 

Why do we not have tails? This is the questions that evolutionists tend to ask.

In their view, “approximately 25 million years ago, an ancestor of both humans and apes genetically diverged from monkeys and lost its tail. No one had identified the genetic mutation responsible for this dramatic change in our physiology — until now.

In a new study published Wednesday (Feb. 28) in the journal Nature, researchers identified a unique DNA mutation that drove the loss of our ancestors' tails. It's located in the gene TBXT, which is known to be involved in tail length in tailed animals.”

We know from Genesis, that God created each creature independently. There was no chance of a man growing a tail.

But an article in Live Science has this to say; “over millions of years, changes in DNA allow animals to evolve. Some changes involve only a single rung in DNA's twisted ladder, but others are more complex”.

This is an instance of Darwinian storytelling, with no facts to support it. While it talks about the” Aku elements that are present in great apes but not in monkeys “. This does not mean that the great apes are our ancestors.
