real one,
WHO HATCHED THE EGG, Adam?
A comment that should anyone care to take seriously, proves conclusively that like most Creationists you have absolutely no clue about the process of evolution or animal enthnology. It also proves that you did not even attempt to read the link that I posted, in which this question is answered. But as I noted, Creationists have no interest in learning anything but how to bend facts to suit an preconceived conclusion.
Get anminimal education, then come back and try again.

PS - If you want to stay in the game, how about answering the question that I posed to both yourself and Perry and which you have avoided answering. Why do humans get goosebumps?
HS,
you didnt answer my question. I did read your link. See you are a false witness.
Why do we get goosebumps?
"Goosebumps" or "gooseflesh" is known in medical terminology as piloerection (pil is from the Latin word for hair). People experience this phenomenon when they are cold or frightened. The hair is able to stand on end due to the contraction of the pili muscles at the base of the hairs. When they are triggered by external stimulus, the tiny muscles become hyperactive and the hair stands up straight. Because humans have very short hairs, our highly visible skin displays many small bumps as the pili muscles contract.
All mammals are capable of piloerection. Some scientists think it is used for warmth. The fluffing of hair or fur creates a barrier between the sensitive mammalian skin and the cold environment. Within the hair area pockets, warm air is trapped, keeping the animal protected. Piloerection may also be a defensive reaction. With all of its hair standing on end, the animal would look larger, causing a predator to look for less imposing prey.
or maybe they like to read the goosebumps books?
