“It’s remarkable to see how humans can have such a direct and dramatic impact on the colouration of wild organisms, not just on their survival but on their evolution itself.” Chinese flower has evolved to be less visible to pickers
I know this is a new article by the Guardian news paper, but Charles Darwin covered this in his book Origin of the species in 1859. If a mutation survives better than another for 'any reason', not just human influence, then that will become the dominant species.
It's the speed of the evolution, and its being directly attributable to an identified human cause, that's of interest here ;-)
