The idea of a “missing link” is a misconception because nothing is actually “missing”. There are many, many transitional forms that have been found between all kinds of distinct taxonomical groups, including in our ancestral line. The news is filled almost daily with new discoveries that show the transitions and adaptations of species. There are many well preserved fossils that show the transitions of things like scales to feathers and toes to hooves and they are on display in museums for everyone to see and study. DNA sequencing has provided further evidence with adaptations occurring at the right time in the geographical record to support these transitions. Several discoveries within our own human lineage fulfilled the predictions that humans share a common ancestor with modern African apes, like the gorillas and chimpanzees.
