Evolution project (ideas)?

i need to do a project on the evolution of a species. what would be an easy (easy to find info, interesting, etc) species to do? some have already been taken cuz u have to sign up for them. i know for sure pandas and humans have been taken.

I think crocodiles/alligators or a type of shark would be a good idea. They haven't evolved much since dinosaur times, which makes a lot of evolutionary biologists interested in finding out what makes them so successful (and means there's lots of info available on them). Also they're just really cool, and you can include lots of pictures of scary teeth.



here's a couple of sites to help you decide:

Lobsters!



It's very interesting that crayfish and lobsters look so much alike... I suspect that lobsters evolved from crayfish, and not the other way 'round!
you could do horses or elephants.



You could also dothe Pteranodon (bird) which evolved from the pteradactyl
