Dog breeders can selectively mate their animals so that eventually
the descendants have shorter legs or longer hair than their forebears.
However, the changes dog breeders can produce often result from losses
in gene function. For example, the dachshund’s small size is caused by a
failure of normal development of cartilage, resulting in dwarfism.

While the word “species� is used frequently , it should be noted that
this term is not found in the Bible book of Genesis, which uses the much
more inclusive term “kind.� Often, what scientists choose to call the
evolution of a new species is simply a matter of variation within a
“kind,� as the word is used in the Genesis account.

To peddle Judaism, of course.
Mentioning Genesis twice, is a give away.
