You Ida, Me Ida

Ida by Google.

Ida, or Darwinius, is a genus of the Adapiformes from the Eocene epoch. Basically, she’s a 47 million year old fossil unveiled this week by German scientists claiming she’s the missing link to the evolution of human beings. Oh and her discovery is driving the Creationists mad.
