"Mollusks consist of a wide range of invertebrates that include the intelligent octopus, pulmonated snails (gastropods), and bivalves (clams). They appear suddenly in the early Cambrian about 514 million years ago according to evolution theory.
In 2020, evolutionists said there is “no good record of molluscs before they had shells, and there can be some doubt that certain early fossil shells are really remains of molluscs.”
Five years later, evolutionists writing in Nature said, “Mollusca is the second most species-rich animal phylum, but the pathways of early molluscan evolution have long been controversial.”
Indeed, the story of mollusk evolution has been rewritten again in light of the discovery of spiky fossils called Punk ferox and Emo vorticaudum.

They belong to the molluscan group Aculifera (e.g., chitons). Evolutionists have long seen this group of mollusks as primitive and rudimentary. But science writer Sanjana Gajbhiye stated, “this discovery paints a different picture, revealing their complexity and evolutionary ingenuity.” Additionally, Sutton et al. reported in Nature that the two species had a mode of locomotion that was “novel” and “unusual.”
The intricacy of these creatures is no surprise to creationists, who expect these “primitive” aculiferan species to be very complex. But notice that credit is given not to the Creator but to evolution for being clever, resourceful, and imaginative. Is there anything this mindless, random process can’t do?
The “early” mollusks (aculiferans) were sophisticated, show no evidence of evolution, and were well-preserved in sediments, which is contrary to evolution and consistent with the creation model."
