      I learned in university that the first fish with 4 legs were fully aquatic. They developed them to walk on the ground of the ocean and later used them on land. That would make it a pre-adaptation. So the drawing has the evolutionary steps wrong. Would you agree on it? I’m just curious

        You should read up on the Tiktaalik. It is a relatively new discovery in 2008. It show that there was any evolutionary step.
