No they haven't. Also, we have well known and documented transitional forms between fish, snakes, lizards, and frogs, between whales, dolphins, and other land mammals, between reptiles and other proto-mammals, between birds and dinosaurs, etc. The evidence is astounding. There is no serious debate in science whether or not common descent happened. You can quote a handful of scientists that say the earth is 6,000 years old and that radiometric dating proves the bible, and other nonsense, but within the scientific community as a whole, there is no controversy. It's like the flat earth and the solid state theory. People still believe it and often come up with clever arguments, but they are full of misunderstandings and fallacies. Nobody takes them seriously anymore, and this includes creationists. We are apes, primates, this was determined decades ago, feel free to reject it, but the evidence is staring you right in the face every time you look in the mirror.
You say this, but this is obviously going to be the case for the scientific community that does not commingle with religion lol. We have documented things yes. The embryonic drawings done previous were shown as fake, and that ther eis only a short period during incubation that embryos look slightly similar to each other.
A lot of the transitional animals, as you call them, are completely their own species and we have no fossils that I have seen during my research, nor presented to me in class, that were only slightly different from the species they were claimed to be transitioned from. There are too many differences. Just like people think we came from chimps. We did not, we came from Neanderthals and other sorts of sapiens.
edit: w.e, I'm not here to actually argue, I just wanted to present my viewpoint. We aren't even credentialed enough to argue this and have any valid point. Lets just agree to disagree.
