Human Evolution: A Lost Cause

Because humans don’t have predators and aren’t fighting for survival,  it is almost improbable that humans as a species will ever evolve biologically. Evolution in the wild happens when an offspring is born with a unique trait that gives it an edge over the rest of its species. For example, a colony of mice migrate onto a new color sand. They blended in with the other color sand, but not this kind. Predators easily find and eat these mice until one is born different. It is the color of the new sand, and it blends in well. It survives and reproduces, making more mice that survive well. Soon the other color mice take over the colony. This could never happen to humans because (as I stated earlier) we don’t have predators or competition for food. Soon with new technology, though, we may be able to genetically modify ourselves to have other traits and abilities. In conclusion, biological evolution is and will be forever lost on our kind and maybe others as well.
