Whale Bones in the Sahara Desert

There are whale bones in the Sahara desert. Whale bones have also been found in Peru and Chile.

At first glance, this may look like evidence for a great flood. However, the bones are ancient. They don't belong to animals that exist today. By some estimates they are as much as 43 million years old, so if the whales died due to a flood it's not the flood mentioned in the Bible, nor is this evidence in support of Peter Warlow's tippe-top theory.

Rather, this supports the position that Earth is an expanding planet that was largely covered by shallow seas as recently as 43 million years ago.

The whales died in these seas, or they were beached next to them. As our planet continued its expansion, their remains grew increasingly remote from water, until today where they are found far inland.
