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.

This is a topic on all the worlds of Nintendo, Konami, and Sega. We will look at the biology, evolutionary history, and then post drawings of possible real-life versions of these characters. This is in the Habitable Zone, because alot of these characters are aliens.

Are you plausible?

The Mario Brothers Movie has nothing to do with the game.


Aww, come on... The movie just took a bunch of elements from the game and explained them in a marginally realistic setting. Are we going to do anything different than that?

I hear that movie sucked and we are doing a documentary rather than an action movie if you get what I mean.

Also right now the talk is Yoshi not plumbers.

Don't remember it so I didn't know sorry.

Also what part of Yoshi in that movie can you use to contribute to this topic besides wanting our version to be just as cute?

Early pro-sauropods ate some meat.

Prosauropods are in my opinion some of the worst canidates for Yoshi's ancestors. The most it could be related is as an inbetween group for Theropods and Sauropods.

Okay that sounds plausible. Though there should be other options to consider.

Only ones I can think of with four or more fingers are Herrerasaurus and its relatives.

Maybe Yoshi isn't a true Dinosaur then? I mean with the egg cages it would not surprise me if these aren't even from Earth. Maybe they are just Highly convergent? And if we take that route we could give Yoshi the Cage system, a Mammalian brain, a frog tongue and a dinosaurian body?

Though instead of being an alien they might be heavily GMed into being?

Small insectivorious raptor evolves a chameleon-like tounge to catch prey. Most other dinosaurs die out leaving this little guy time to grow bigger.
