Notes
Notes for an eventual page attempting to exhaustively document the extensive interlocking evidence for evolution:
- wikipedia:Bornean Clouded Leopard (Neofelis diardi): believed to have differentiated from the mainland Clouded Leopard (Neofelis nebulosa) some 1.4 million years ago, when the land bridge from Borneo and Sumatra to mainland Asia became submerged. (Find details about land bridge: geological evidence that it existed, etc.)
