Swear to god, this is from a noble laureate marine biologist, and my daughter knows it to be true:

Believe it or not, we are fortunate to be living in a time in which we are seeing the noble 'Tog in the middle of evolution. Not to soon in the near distant future(perhaps in our children's lifetime) the Blackfish will actually be an amphibious creature, feeding voraciously on anything hard and crunchy. Teach your grandchildren not to sleep on the beach! See those teeth? Those are designed not only to rip crabs and mollusks from the rocks they live, but to remove fingers and toes at the knuckles. Before too long, those giant pectoral fins will become flipper-like, and the tog will be walking up onto land to feed. Yes folks, if you live by the shore, no longer will deer, foxes, squirrels, rabbits, be the only life we see patrolling the shores. Beware, warn your children and grandchildren, and for god's sake, don't forget the steel toed beach sandals..

Thanks great, then I can just shoot them and won't need to freeze by butt off in a boat all day.

Seriously though... I doubt this occurs in our or our grandchildren's lifetime...maybe in a million years or so. That kind of evolution takes a looooooooooooong time.
