Backwards Evolution?

This is an interesting article that showed up in my feed today. This asks the question of whales and dolphins evolving back to becoming land animals. I must admit, and I don't talk about families I've deleted over the years of working on Metazoica, but I thought about what it would be like if dolphins evolved back to being land animals. But I threw that idea away way back in the days. Because it just doesn't make sense. I've had several ideas since I started this project in the early 90s that I've thrown away. But the one that applies to this is those families. I thought IF whales and dolphins were to revert back to being land animals, they'd have to walk on their forelimbs. They do still have the same bone structure as land-dwellers' feet. But that kind of over-dramatic reverse evolution could never happen. Anyway, this is the article I found...

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...

Asteroid impact 3 billion years ago sparked early life on Earth

 The same object that is said to have wiped out life throughout history may also have been the one event that brought life to this planet. Of course, that has been a theory for quite some time now. I used to hear about it back in the 90s. When I was a kid, my ma used to threaten me when she couldn't handle me with "I brought you into this world, and I'll take you out!" This theory brings a whole new meaning to that phrase. This article I found this morning believes that an asteroid is responsible for bringing life to Earth. That would mean that we are not originally earthlings. Also that there must be other forms of life out there living their lives on another planet. Maybe more advanced than we are? Who knows? What could these other forms look like? Could they be creatures with 9 legs and tentacles growing out of their head? Are 9 legs possible in any life form anywhere? I guess that would depend on it's surroundings. The reason we retained the formula of having ...
