Hidden DNA found in blue whales reveals they've been mating with other species — and their hybrid offspring

"no current evidence that carrying fin whale DNA negatively impacts blue whale individuals." Nor should there be any such assumption. Our Neanderthal genes - more than 2% in many northern European populations - have been beneficial to us.

So what they're saying is that our 90% DNA to monkeys, which is much more identical than these whales DNA to eachother, is that people still fornicate with monkeys.

Brings back the old saying, "nature will find a way" seems true in this article.

Sounds like the whales have a fresh take on Goldschmidt's "Hopeful Monster" theory.‍️‍ 👫
