‘Nothing evolved, it was just an aberration that wasn’t recognized as prey by its predator and thereby survived to procreate.’
But that's just what evolution is! (Of course, ‘wasn’t recognized as prey by its predator’ is only one example of a beneficial aberration/variation.)
You probably know that and were just joking, but people often don't quite realise how simple evolution is. I have heard earnest creationists say almost exactly the same sentence.
