The Australian lungfish is a curiosity of nature. Like several other modern fish species, this fish has a lung-like structure besides its gills. Evolutionists claim that the lungfish is the transitional species between sea and land. However, despite this interesting organ, the lungfish has several genetic characteristics that disqualify it from being the transitional species. Its 43 Gb genome is much larger than that of fish. Mitochondrial DNA analysis places lungfishes likely in their own separate apobaramin. Modern fish, such as electric eels also have lungs, meaning that the appearance of lungs in fish is not characteristic of the transition from sea to land. The lung is complex organ and has not been explained by random mutations by evolutionists. Therefore, lungfish are most likely just yet another species of fish with lungs, and not a transitional species.
