Speculative biology is simultaneously a science and form of art in which one speculates on the possibilities of life and evolution. What could the world look like if dinosaurs had never gone extinct? What could alien lifeforms look like? What kinds of plants and animals might exist in the far future? These questions and more are tackled by speculative biologists, and the Speculative Evolution welcomes all relevant ideas, inquiries, and world-building projects alike. With a member base comprising users from across the world, our community is the largest and longest-running place of gathering for speculative biologists on the web.

While unregistered users are able to browse the forum on a basic level, registering an account provides additional forum access not visible to guests as well as the ability to join in discussions and contribute yourself! Registration is free and instantaneous.

Would the lack of Permian and Cretaceous extinctions have resulted in such species mutualism?

okay, okay, maybe I'm reading a bit more into things then I should... :")

I do find the basic premise intriguing. HOW such a relationship would form takes some work...

Well, I doubt the author may give a plausible explanation in the end. But a fiction trick for sure :geek: :P
THE WHOLE POINT WAS THAT THE GIRL WAS WRITING FANFICTION ABOUT HER PHYSICS TA, SHE HADN'T ACTUALLY TRAVELED TO AN ALTERNATE UNIVERSE.

* yellowdrakex clarifies things that should be obvious
There is no need to warm up.

We all are just answering the post title which does "How well thought out is the biology in this cartoon?"

As long as I've read in early replies and in next ones it seems "NO. But looks funny".

Funny, but not scientifically plausible, my dear fangirl :P
