Tiktaalik roseae is an extinct lobe-finned fish from the Devonian period. It has been dubbed a "fishapod" by one of its discovers, Neil Shubin, and is claimed to be a transitional form between fish and tetrapods (in this case, amphibians). It is dated at aproximately 375 million years.

- Tiktaalik has a possibility of being a representative of the evolutionary transition from fish to amphibians. It is an example from several lines of ancient sarcopterygian fish developing adaptations to the oxygen-poor shallow-water habitats of its time, environmental conditions which are thought to have led to the evolution of tetrapods. It and similar animals may possibly be the common ancestors of the broad swath of all terrestrial fauna: amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals. The first well-preserved Tiktaalik fossils were found in 2004 on Ellesmere Island in Nunavut, Canada.
- Tiktaalik is the same in size and shape with the real life Tiktaalik.It has small fins that it uses as legs and to swim.Its face is small and used to catch fish and small animals.It has a small fish tail-like tail that it uses to swim and to defend itself.It is colored green with some dark brown stripes along its body.
- Tiktaalik was a fake "fossil" Dr. Ted Daeschler, a factonista, brought on Stephen's show and tried to pass off as real. What an asshole. What Tiktaalik really is is a type of freak show that nobody was evolved from except maybe communists. It was a crocodile made out of plaster, thus rendering it fire-proof, but also immobile. For this reason it would not be a good idea to use it in the fire moat.
- Tiktaalik is a genus of extinct sarcopterygian (lobe-finned) fish that lived approximately 375 million years ago during the Late Devonian period, with many features akin to those of tetrapods (four-legged animals). It is an example from several lines of ancient sarcopterygian fish developing adaptations to the oxygen-poor shallow-water habitats of its time, which led to the evolution of amphibians. Well-preserved fossils were found in 2004 on Ellesmere Island in Nunavut, Canada.

What Tiktaalik really is is a type of freak show that nobody was evolved from except maybe communists. It was a crocodile made out of plaster, thus rendering it fire-proof, but also immobile. For this reason it would not be a good idea to use it in the fire moat. It had to filter feed on Mentos and Diet Coke through one of those curly straws. When bashed open with a bat while blind-folded, candy will pour out, but only those weird peanut butter tooth removal candies, not anything good.

Well-preserved fossils were found in 2004 on Ellesmere Island in Nunavut, Canada. Paleontologists suggest that it was an intermediate form between fish such as Panderichthys, which lived about 380 million years ago, and early tetrapods such as Acanthostega and Ichthyostega, which lived about 365 million years ago. Its mixture of fish and tetrapod characteristics led one of its discoverers, Neil Shubin, to characterize Tiktaalik as a "fishapod".
