I have learnt a lot from this post, because I have been pondering on this same topic for a long time, but what does the study of genetics has to say about this, has there been any genetic proof concerned with this, I will confess I haven't really had time to continue with my research on this topic, but I will have to try harder, nice post, i learnt alot
I tell you that until now there is little to no progress regarding this.
The small museum of Mystery Park, in Switzerland exhibits a replica of one of the fossils that were found in Ecuador since, although the remains were sent to the Smithsonian Institute to be studied, they have not yet published the answers of their analyzes, There is a system of complaints and claims around this but it seems that they do not make enough noise to be heard.
