As far as birds go, the hoatzin is really doing its own thing. It's a picky eater, an evolutionary mystery, and its babies have a super bizarre adaptation that might not be as uncommon as you'd think.

@blarg2429 3 года назад

@@AifDaimon The wyvern/dragon distinction is made up, and not as widespread as you might htink. If you want to look at dragons through the lens of mythology, you quickly find that the concept of "dragon" is more of a handful of distinct narrative roles than a physical description; some dragons are mashups of various specific animals, some are just huge snakes, etc (consider the fact that _every_ culture has a dragon-concept; if they were defined by body type this would not be true). If you want to look at dragons through the lens of modern fantasy pop culture, then there are no fixed rules because that's not how art works. If you care about this topic, I suggest you watch OSP's "Trope Talk: Dragons" video. If not, have a nice day.

Wing claws instantly made sense to me, since wings are hands. So it wasn't a new adaptation, and just re-evolving something that is likely still there in its genetics. The stomach thing, on the other hand, is actually strange, as that's a new adaptation. Which is cool!

@censusgary 2 месяца назад

The difference between baby birds like the hoatzin, that are relatively agile (for baby birds), and those that aren’t, is an important distinction made by ornithologists and birders. Many birds (think robins) have young that hatch from their eggs blind, naked, and basically helpless. These are altricial chicks. Others (think poultry, like ducks) have young that hatch with a kind of feathers, and able to walk around and feed themselves. The latter are precocial chicks. These terms are not usually applied to mammals, but we could say that baby horses (foals) are precocial- they can walk and jump around within a few hours of birth- while human babies are altricial- we spend our first several months just lying around, waiting to be fed, and most of us don’t walk until we’re around a year old.

@jonathangauthier3549 3 года назад

I'm a mere layman, but it would seem obvious that as birds evolved from small patches of dinosaurs that survived extinction, they would be bereft at seeing the minimal choice of foods left that weren't rotting brontosaurus corpses. If there existed small, folivorous dinosaurs before the mass extinction that had survived to pass on their genes, and those descendants evolved into the cassowaries, geese, ducks etc that we know today, then why wouldn't they retain useful features like fore-claws on their wings, pointy rows of teeth, and dew claws on their ankles. These are all evolutionary benefits, so why would a species exploiting a rarely eaten food source to avoid fierce competition make any less sense?

@Svensk7119 Год назад
