Not sure what "theory" you're talking about. I know of no "niche" theory. Is it your assertion that animals MUST keep changing, absent any reason to do so?

Even Darwin postulated that some species might undergo long periods of little or no evolutionary change -- apparently wallcrawlr is at least 147 years behind on his science reading. But then this comes as no surprise to those of us who have followed his posts.

Have the paleontologists even said that this particular species was around 11 million years ago? All I can see from the article is that the family and genus was thought to be extinct; nothing that the species itself was around. I could have missed something though.
