There is some evolution in Middle-Earth [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Consider hobbits, for instance. They evolved from men. And it is also said that Oliphaunts in the Third Age are bigger than their descendants in later ages (which reminded me of mammoths [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] )

And taking into account that this happens in such a short period of time, as has been pointed out by Gwaihir and Lord of Angmar, that means that in Middle-Earth evolution is in fact extremly fast, much faster than in 'real Earth' [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]
