The Fossil Record and Humans?

The fossil record for humans is actually much more extensive than many people seem to realize. We have fossil hominids reaching back to around 7 million years, and at least 14 known hominid species in that time frame. (more or less, depending on if you are a "splitter" or a "lumper"). Many modern animals do not have a well represented fossil record, as they live in areas where fossilization is difficult, or very rare. Animals that live in jungle habitats almost never leave fossils, as their remains are quickly recycled back into the ecosystem.

Sure there's fossil records for alot of things. They do jump around as organisms changed and time lines are broken up because not everything died in an area that ended up fossilizing bones. DNA evidence also supports how organisms are related and help bridge gaps in the physical evidence. I don't think we are planted just because we are linked to so many other creatures and even bacteria. Unless, amino acids and the first organism that we all evolved from the planted first viable organism. We are a very tight knit world within biology. All the organisms function together in each owns spot. I don't think a panda was just delivered and thrown into the mix.

It takes millions of years to fossilize, humans have only been around for less than 1 million. There is plenty of evidence in bones and archaeological sites.

There's ample fossil evidence of human evolution. Every year there seems to be some new off shoot Homo species discovered.
