BREAKING FISH NEWS: Half A Thousand Fish Evolve Crazy Fast In Single Lake Thanks To Fishy Hookups

#shorts #scinews #science news #science #science max #fish #evolution #ecology #hybridization #cichlids #lake victoria #biodiversity #speciation #adaptive radiation Good evening, I’m Aria. In some breaking news from the fish world, scientists report that over 500 different species of cichlid fish evolved in just 16,000 years in Africa’s Lake Victoria. Talk about a lot of fishy business going on! Researchers say this crazy fast evolution happened because three original cichlid lineages met up in the lake, got their hybridization on, and boom – baby hybrids all over the place. These frisky fish hookups produced so much genetic diversity that new species popped up like guppies. So next time you’re judging cichlids for their rapid evolution and hanky panky hybrid ways, just remember – we humans also have some hybrid ancestors getting jiggy with it. Now that’s some fishy family history. And that’s the way the fishy crumbles. Stay woke, my friends.
