The short version of the above is that animals who live to do more fucking end up having more children. Remember that this...this...is what you're objecting to when you post next, Yukon.
Gods truth, as it were..at least to you, depends on this..being false.........
As an aside, the genetics for eyespot patterns already existed in the population, it wasn't a new mutation, chance or otherwise. Even people with a better understanding of biology than that the creationists express sometimes labor under the misapprehension that life somehow evolves -to face challenges-...but it doesn't. The challenge presents itself, and there is either a solution...or the lineage dies out. Evolutionary biology doesn't wait for an obstacle to present itself..it jumps through hoops even when there are no hoops present.
It throws every dart in barrel full of darts at the wall. Some stick, most don't.
It isn't directly on account of eyespots becoming more prevalent in the population that this particular lineage is successful, ultimately, it's on account of the dearth of things that eat owls. The very thing that offers some defense, some semblance of deterance...also signifies to foxes, squirrels, eagles, and wild cats that food is present. At least some of these animals would leave the insects alone if they didn't have this pattern..but since they do, they don't.
Scaring off a bat and drawing in a couger isn't what I'd call a competent design decision. How about you?
