Evolutionist have found a walking whale ancestor. it was  named after the Egyptian god of death.

They think that this walking whale, it was so terrible that they called it the Egyptian god of death, 

They think that it lived 43 million years ago. It was  so fearsome, that paleontologists have named it after Anubis, the ancient Egyptian god of death.

 It was 3 meters or 10 foot long,  It brings to mind Pakicetus that for a while was the evolutionists ancient whale.

Darwinists have also called an otter a whale. 

 The study was published online Wednesday (Aug. 25) in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences.

Evolutionists have finally found a whale that they think would be a precursor to the whales living today. It’s been called Peregocetus pacificus.. meaning "the travelling whale that reached the Pacific”.

They think that this species was was four metre long (13 feet) could swim and walk on land. They also think that this able to walk like an otter or a beaver.

"’ This is the most complete specimen ever found for a four-legged whale outside of India and Pakistan,’ Dr Olivier Lambert, a scientist at the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences and co-author of the study, said.”

They dug up a fossil of thought to be a 43 million years old.

But maybe we should remember Pakicetus.

When Philip Gingerich discovered Pakicetus inachus in the early 1980s, it was initially thought to be a marine creature – on the basis of a few teeth and fragments of the skull and lower jaw. Dated at 52 million years it was touted as a whale ancestor. Science magazine even published a front cover showing a diving Pakicetus.

However, when more bones were unearthed, it became obvious that Pakicetus was a land animal resembling a pig.

In a new Darwinian tale, an ancient deer turned into a whale.

Mathematician and philosopher David Berlinski calculates that a cow-like creature living on dry land would have needed at least 50, 000 morphological changes for such a move.

From skin to the breathing apparatus, almost everything has to be changed if the cow wants to stay alive in its new watery environment. Like transforming a car into a submarine, it needs an enormous amount of changes.

Ancient Deer Turned into a Whale in New Darwinian Tale

Darwinian stories can be both fascinating and bizarre – at the very same time.

Marine creatures left the sea because they saw food on land. Now New Scientist is telling us that land creatures returned to the sea as the shallow waters were so full of food.

This time it was supposed to be a deer that metamorphosed into a whale.

Thus, in a typical Darwinian scenario, the poor creatures kept on going back and forth until they found their preferred element.

In the early 1980s, evolutionists announced the discovery of Pakicetus, the grandmother of all marine whales, with great fanfare.

They believe that it lived ”52 million years” ago.

A diving Pakicetus made it to the cover of Science.

Later, after they found more bones, they had to acknowledge that Pakicetus was a land animal.

Then in 2011, researchers found a whale jawbone in Antarctica. “Dated” at 49 million years, it almost as old as its assumed land-loving ancestor, leaving far too little time for evolution.

There are other difficulties as well.

Mathematician and philosopher Dr. David Berlinski calculated that a cow-like creature living on dry land would have needed at least 50, 000 morphological changes for a move to the sea.

From skin to the breathing apparatus, almost everything had to be changed if the cow wanted to stay alive in its new watery environment.

Like transforming a car into a submarine, it would have needed an enormous amount of changes, making the entire scenario impossible.
