In this passage, the writer first states that a bird's ability to fly has always been a much debated topic among scientists. Then goes on to explain that Ken Dial created an experiment to study the evolution of flight by observing how baby Chukars learn to fly when a group of students challenged him to come up with new data on this much debated topic. During the experiment, Dial noticed the unusual way baby Chukars "were using their wings and legs cooperatively" to climb hay bales. After this, he created a series of experiments to study this observation he had made. After he conducted these experiments, Dial came to the conclusion that Dial determined that these baby birds "angled their wings differently from birds in flight".
