Welcome to Metazoica's Blogspot!!

Hello and welcome to Metazoica on Blogspot. Here we will be discussing the future of evolution and also some about animals in today's world. If you have not yet visited my Metazoic site, I would like to recommend it, as it has all kinds of ideas about how I believe tomorrow's animals will look. Some of the ideas are all my own, but there have been some that were aided by friends and comrades who are also into studying future evolution. I will also be discussing some of the ideas they have given me, some of which I have decided to use on my site, which will soon be new and improved all the way!

When new things have been added to the site, I will announce them here. I had a forum, but due to the lack of new activity and being taken over by spammers instead, I have decided to delete it. I will have links here to friends who have forums and/or e-mail groups that deals with the subject of future evolution. Any pornographic images posted on this blog will not be accepted. I will set this blog only to post a person's comments after they have been accepted. As with Dougal Dixon's book, "After Man: A Zoology of the Future", I talk about these animals like a time traveler who has visited the world of the future and studied these animals. So don't be surprised if I talk about them in the present tense.

Those visiting this site may find some of the material on here to be offensive or inaccurate. You of course have a right to your own opinion, just as I have a right to mine. The animals depicted on my site were my idea to put there. Any ideas you may have to improve on any of my views may be taken into account. But it is not guaranteed.

Anyway, enjoy yourself on this blog! I will discuss each animal family as well on here, and a lot of other info can also be found on my Metazoica web site: www.metazoica.com. Hope to see you there!

The Making of Lemuria?

 I admit, I cannot take credit for naming the island of Lemuria. That was Dougal Dixon's idea I believe. But it was a good enough name that I decided to use it in my Metazoic project. After all, Metazoica is kind of an extension of the After Man project. It was inspired by it, and I just built on it. I really liked Dixon's ideas and agreed with most of them at the time. Besides, I don't believe his ideas were too far off. For example, the island of Lemuria. Now, I don't really know if that's what it'll be called. But I do know, and there have been studies, that the island, made up of most of the eastern side of Africa, will emerge. I found an article that describes how it is believed this area will form. It is a very seismically active area even today. So, the plates will obviously separate. Scientists now believe that could happen within the next 10 million years (approximately). I picture at first, it will become a channel, which in my book, I call the Nile Ch...

New Changes to Old Names

Image
 Well, I kinda got a burst of inspiration from working on the Australian bush foxes yesterday. So, I've been working on my checklist for Metazoica. I thought it was proper to add the other foxes to the canine family in the Metazoic, because to be honest with you, I don't believe foxes are going anywhere. There's a slight difference. There are 4 genera of foxes, instead of simply using the one that is classified today. I divided the genus Vulpes into 4 separate genera. I'm using not only Vulpes (northern forest foxes), but also Fennecus (for old world desert foxes), Neocyon (for American prairie foxes) and Alopex for the arctic and corsac foxes. Then, of course I added Urocyon , which is a genus currently in use today for the gray foxes. I also added a few species of my own to these genera. For example, the silver and "cross fox" are separate species in the genus Vulpes . Today, they are simply mutations of the red fox ( Vulpes vulpes ). But, I figure by t...

How Cities Affect Evolution

 I saw this video tonight and thought it was interesting enough to talk about here. This film focuses on anole lizards in Puerto Rico that live in forests and now are becoming specially adapted to urban life. This herpetologist has looked at these city anoles and noticed some adaptations they have as opposed to their forest living relatives. Since this is a site where we hope to learn about evolution, I thought it was important to learn about how cities affect the process of evolution. This can also help any upcoming speculative biologists understand how evolution goes. Actually, evolution can go any way. It all depends on a lot of things. This just happens to talk about animals that evolved to live in big city environments. And it's not just in Puerto Rico this can happen. It can happen in ANY city in the world.
