This drift is still occurring today and some scientists believe that the continents will eventually recombine to form another supercontinent called Pangaea ultima.

Why did Alfred Wegener get criticism?
1) Most scientists did not believe Wegener's theory and thought it was foolish.] Some critics thought the old theories of giant land bridges could explain the similarities among fossils in South America and Africa. Others argued that Wegener's theory did not explain the forces that would have been needed to move continents to such great distances. Wegener thought that the forces that moved the continents could be the same forces that made earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
