| 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!

I know Parasky just made a similar topic, but it's only for exobiology apparently, so I'm making another thread. There are lots of cool things on deviantart. Anybody can find some good examples? |

I found some things for putting in general discussion: http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=§ion=&global=1&q=no+cretaceous+extinction#/d20dddf and http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=§ion=&global=1&q=no+cretaceous+extinction#/d39sf2 Very intriguing |

I do art sometimes. "if you want green eat a salad" Projects: Amammalia: A strange place where mammals didn't make it and the land is, once again, dominated by archosaurs. Oceanus: An endless sea dotted with islands, reefs, and black holes. Literally endless, literal black holes. ❤️❤️~I'm not a boy~❤️❤️ | |

Henry you dick! Mr. Hands "Am I boring? Depends, do you like watching documentaries about 19th and 18th century warfare, having complicated feelings about bismark and crying over the film of winston churchill putting flowers on FDR's grave. If so then I'm so fucking boring. " | |

So just asking. Do you guys really believe that some dinosaurs survived a few thousand extra years. If they did that would make an awesome documentary, movie or Primeval episode. |

animals like Lystrosaurus survived a few million years after Permian-Triassic extinction - and I am sure I have read somewhere that dinosaurs in Antartica and Australia may have survived a few millions years after the K-T extinction... |

Just about everything by Povorot fits this category: http://povorot.deviantart.com/gallery/9348116 http://povorot.deviantart.com/gallery/9348132 He's created a very conservative no-KT scenario which nonetheless has great creatures and even (gulp) a sophont. Edit: Ooh, and he's also done some aliens. http://povorot.deviantart.com/gallery/23706781 Edited by Spugpow, Mar 7 2011, 01:53 AM.

Dinosaurs did survive the K-T. They survive to the present. In fact, I love eating dinosaurs and I see them more than mammals (except for humans) every day. I once also had a pet dinosaur. They're vernacularly called 'birds'. And if you have noticed, my avatar is a scavenging Holocene dinosaur. Edited by Cephylus, Mar 7 2011, 08:59 AM.

Yes, Povorot has a good, realistic and not-so-traditional project. With beautiful illustrations of course. I have a similar project, a terraforming project actually, it has no name, but it's dominated by the Protobird Dinosauroids (no, they're very different from Povorot's dinosauroids) and lots of strange beaked dinosaurs that mostly resemble clawed and tailed birds. I tried to make it weird (in design). I have some sketches for the apex predator, the sophonts, the biggest herbivore and lots of lemur-loris-galago thingy primates. |
