Born 16 April 1788. Georges Louis Leclerc, Count of Buffon, dies, and we were bequeathed by an extensive work of 44 volumes, Histoire Naturelle. The mathematician, botanist, biologist, cosmologist and French writer wanted to bring together in this work all the human knowledge of nature. There is no doubt that he made several contributions to this work, but as is not known in all of them, he introduced a lot of curious hypotheses.

For example, she defended and “proved” that females, including women, have the ability to generate sperm. He invited a number of scientists to the prepared demonstration. He killed a bitch, dissected him and found sperm in his ovaries. When one of the scientists told him that the dog was in jealousy and had just been covered by a dog, the count of Buffon was not alarmed: he acknowledged that the dog had just
been covered, but responded that sperm needed much more time to reach them ovarios.Se confronted the Catholic Church because he said that the world was 50,000 years old – although he did not invent it, it came closer to the actual age.
But that doesn't mean he was ahead of Darwin. Lecrerce had a special theory about species evolution: we can call it descending or degenerative evolution. He recognized that there was evolution in some species, not all, but that those changes did not improve the species, but worsened them. Thus, the donkeys were, in their opinion, evolved horses (degenerated) and the monkeys, on the other hand, believed to be born of human evolution.

It's clear that females don't produce sperm, and the Earth is over 50,000 years old. But the Count of Buffon, by his names, was a scientist of his time, that is, he met the borders of his time. In addition, more than one person will be willing to review and take into account the theory of degenerative evolution of the human being based on the current situation.
