Speciation and Mutation

For speciation to occur, there must be the same several mutations happening to many members of a population or parent population at the same time. The mutated members will then migrate out of the parent population to be breeding among themselves as the foundation members of a new species.

It is the only way that speciation can occur or be possible. Speciation is not feasible to occur over a long period of time. It has to be instantaneous and the operation have to be on many members of a parent population at the same time so that they can breed among themselves

Random mutations happening to single members of a population will obviously not deliver speciation.

It should be realized that this can hardly happen by chance.
