The Americas

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.

"You can't brush your damn teeth without a damn hook!!! " from Squidbillies.............. Gender: Male	During about 58 million years from now in the future, North and South America have become island continents because of some plate tectonics and continental driftings they have been through many millions of years until 58 million years from now. North America is a redundant continent with some very difficult and cold conditions and temperatures at the north while there are mostly warm, arid, and humid conditions and temperatures at the south. The United States of America have become a very huge rain-shadow desert because throughout time, the temperate and deciduous forests have given way to deserts and the Great Plains have also disappear too. The Appalachian and Rocky mountains have connected to each other and they almost extended themselves. South America is also very redundant just like North America but it was also the last home of our species and to our closely related descendants. The humans now lived at South America before the Isthmus of Panama no longer exists anymore. After the Panama Isthmus was gone, there were always seasonal conditions and changes occurring only at the daytime (mostly they happened at the Pampas and other grasslands of south america) but the fauna and flora have changed very little. The humans mostly replaced the new world monkeys and apes and they were almost extinct but a few species lived at the grassland and desert areas. The southern tip of south america was covered in tundra and it connects to Antarctica and the Andes Mountains remained very unchanged. The Amazon Rainforest and River has been through many different conditions and changes and they are also homes to very wonderful and different diversities and species of animals. However, enjoy the North and South America of 58 million years from now in the future........ Edited by peashyjah, Jun 28 2016, 02:30 PM.

Also, plants and animals started to adapt to this all new desert and they also withstand the hot and dry desert conditions and a community of plants and animals started to appear very quickly. but you just said the whole USA is a giant Rocky Mountains. (with plate tectonics, what does that do to the continent's size?)

Gender: Male	GlarnBoudin Jun 30 2016, 10:54 AM Except rainshadow deserts don't form on both sides of a mountain range. Do you have any inkling of how these things work? Also, if these humans are genetically modified to be different from their ancestors, why are you still calling them humans? Also, how the hell did humans make a 'mechanized' descendant, let alone breed with them? And if they are genetically engineered posthumans, why are you calling them the 'last humans'? They clearly still have descendants, so they aren't the last of their kind. I don't have a inkling of that but i will work on it soon. I don't know about why i call these genetically modified and engineered posthuman descendants humans and it's because they'll always have the same ancestors and it's our own species (Homo sapiens). The mechanized descendant is actually a subspecies and it has dependently evolved from its ancestors to adapt and survive to its own highly advanced and sometimes cybernetic technology and they are the results of inbreeding and medical technologies that also allow other people with medical problems to survive and reproduce. However, the Machines also used most of their biomechanical and cybernetic creations, inventions, and weapons to create genetic-engineering and modifying. Actually, the Machines are the last subspecies of Homo sapiens.

Gender: Male	North American Deserts North America is a continent that is almost almost full of barren land, deserts, and mountains but there are coniferous forests and snow and ice-covered tundra areas located around the north. Plant and animal life is so dense that most of the plants and animals living at this continent have changed little and some of the others have became extinct during the last 10 million years of this continent's future. Birds and mammals are the dominant animals of this continent while South America has even more varied and successful animal communities. The Rocky Mountains have almost spread throughout the whole entire continent, reaching to the tip of Southern Mexico and connecting to the other mountains of this continent (including the Appalachians). There is a very large and expanding all new river called the Great Spreading, going from the top of northern Canada to the tip of Southern Mexico. This continent has also become a bastion and paradise for predators and scavengers. However, they wouldn't outcompeted each other but they would still compete with their omnivorous and herbivorous prey. Rodents living on this continent have almost became extinct expect for future descendants of the rat, mouse, and beaver. also, these descendants of modern day rodents have also gave rise to all new genera and species that couldn't be found anywhere on this world. North America has also became the last home of the rodents, pigs, bovines, and also scorpions. Okay, get ready for the North American Coniferous Forests later........

"You can't brush your damn teeth without a damn hook!!! " from Squidbillies.............. Gender: Male	The Last Rodents The Rodents were one of the most varied, common, widespread, and successful mammals ever until from 50 to 58 million years from now, the Insectivorous mammals have quickly become more widespread and successful than the rodents that they have quickly replaced and take over the ecological roles of almost all of the rodents while the mice, rats, and the beavers gave rise to even more advanced descendant species. The rodents have became extinct from the rest of the world but advanced descendants of the mice, rats, and beavers only lived in North America. The Insectivores became extinct at both North and South America but they still lived at other continents and islands of the world. Before 50 million years from now, the insectivores and rodents were already competing against each other before those insectivorous mammals quickly replaced the other rodents and took over their niches. The mice have changed a little bit but they have went on to become very social blood-sucking parasitic creatures and their teeth became so sharp and long that they will make their hosts bleed and died to death quickly. The rats have gave rise two all new species: the Hopping Demon (a very solitary and carnivorous desert-dwelling descendant of the Black Rat that only moves by hops and leaps) and the Desert Rat (an slow-moving hairless herbivorous descendant of the Brown Rat that only lives underneath barren land areas in small family groups). The beavers were almost extinct and gave rise to only one descendant species called the Water Walker (Castor lutasaurus), an even more aquatic and solitary descendant of the American Beaver (Castor canadensis).

You know what, I'm just going to channel Hybrid here: Quote: The Rodents were one of the most varied, common, widespread, and successful mammals ever until from 50 to 58 million years from now, Then why are they extinct? Also, redundancy. Quote: the Insectivorous mammals have quickly become more widespread and successful than the rodents that they have quickly replaced and take over the ecological roles of almost all of the rodents How? Also, there isn't really any such group as 'insectivore' mammals; it's basically a wastebasket group. Quote: The Insectivores became extinct at both North and South America but they still lived at other continents and islands of the world. Again, how? Quote: The rats have gave rise two all new species: the Leaping Devil (a very solitary and carnivorous desert-dwelling descendant of the Black Rat that only moves by hops and leaps) and the Desert Bat (an slow-moving hairless herbivorous descendant of the Brown Rat that only lives underneath barren land areas in small family groups). How have rats only gotten two descendants? Why is one a ripoff of the leaping devil from After Man? Why did you call a rat descendant the desert bat? Quote: The beavers were almost extinct and gave rise to only one descendant species called the Water Walker (Castor lutasaurus), an even more aquatic and solitary descendant of the American Beaver (Castor canadensis). How the hell did the genus Castor survive for that long?
	Quotes Spoiler: click to toggle OctoSharkTaSaurus: WELP. HELL-O-PHANTS IT IS. Kamineigh: I was six and I had started having fantasies about this old crone dying. Sometimes by my own hand. YOU'RE DOING SOMETHING HORRIBLY WRONG IF A SIX-YEAR OLD WANTS TO KILL YOU WITH THE SAME HANDS HE JUST USED TO MAKE A BLOCK TOWER. Parasky: No, he's right, they have a medical grade walrus at most hospitals for that sort of thing. Mr Mysterio, regarding yours truly: I'm learning things about you that I'm not sure I wanted to know. HangingThief: An otologist is only as good as his walrus Stealth_Rock: We have a discord for double penetration? Ichthyander: If your eyelids are massive enough to significantly affect the path of light in space, it is time to go sleep. Mr Mysterio: Glarn-Glarn, don't... don't fuck the cave baboons. Kamineigh: They lacked wings. Instead, they went around in modified pilot's gear and beat the shit out of people using maces. Parasky: No! We will not calm down! This is a serious argument over whether or not some long dead animal is in any way similar to a group of modern animals that they are descended from! THIS. IS. SEWIOUS. Lamna: Obvious typo, I'm never going to be popular in Belgium. Trex841: Interesting point. Valid counterpoint. Self-obsessed psychotic rant. Parasky: No ties. Begin genetically modifying crows until we have organisms that roughly resemble those in the competition, and then have them fight to the death to see who wins this competition. Alternatively, Cephalian and SabrWolf could fight to the death. But at the end of the day something will be fighting to the death ~~for my amusement~~ to determine the winner. Yellowdrakex: Is it alright to have an irrational fear of gliding snakes? They're snakes. FROM ABOVE. Kamineigh: See, you wouldn't be in this mess if you began a bloody revolution every time your leaders showed to unsatisfactory. Zihuatanejo: Somewhere in heaven, a very groggy, very confused angel has just woken up and is trying to figure out why a boisterous Australian man is poking it with a stick. Komodo: I'm sorry but in what alternative universe would thousands of zebras be sent back in time by some sort of illegal time travel group to change history and preparing them by making gigantic working animatronic allosaurs? Seriously, why? Parasky: Maybe y'all should move to America, where you can flex your freedom muscles. Sir Spookums: It's a game about children catching super powered monsters, stuffing them in tiny balls, and battling other strangers' monsters. What about that makes sense in regards to anything, mister Kam? Des Orages: Yi qi. Just when you think you've seen it all, nature screws us over once more. Kaminiegh: This is clearly an inaccurate statement. I'd never challenge the authority of an admin... Unless Paraksytron stubbed his toe and fell over. THEN I, STARSCREIGHM, WILL BECOME THE NEW LEADER OF OF THE DE-SPECU-CONS! Dragon: Is normal a good word to use for describing any of us? Velociraptor: I once dreamed I was trying to steal a flamingo. The flamingo was oddly calm about the whole situation. Kaminiegh: THAT'S IT, I'M KINKSHAMING. Flashman63: In its 4,600 year history, men from all eras, places and classes have been entering into the Library: from the ancient bearded sages of Sumeria and Chaldea, to the sober-minded Academics and Zoologists of the Victorian era, to the great warlord Cletus, an inbred hillbilly who just happened to be carrying his AR-15 around his County's Strip-Mall library. OctoSharktasaurus: Well, uh, it's a pseudo-tripedal, terrestrial subcontinental Madagascan Beaked Whale... Is that not obvious? It literally says it blatantly. Holben: Did you not add lamb's blood to your fruit juice and the crushed bones of an englishman to your salsa? It's not authentic if you don't. Kaminiegh: Shut up, Hybrid, stop ruining my chances of time-travelling and getting some Neanderthal tail! Mr Mysterio: Except maybe Canada. If ever there was a country that was hiding secret reserves of powerful alien technology, it's probably mine. HangingThief: If you answered mainly "yes," you are most likely a salamander. Unfortunately it is becoming harder and harder to tell these days. Monster: In vaguely related news, I've developed a fear of my sewing machine. WHAT ARE YOU STRANGE NEEDLEBEAST Mynxi: He sowed the seed, I merely pissed on it and saw what grew. Beetleboy: The moral of the story: never trust a catfish. Parasky: Speaking of original, note to self: write erotic classical Chinese literature fan fiction Bromance of the Three Kingdoms under pseudonym Tuck Chingle. Little: Starting playing DND, took all of an hour of gameplay until a yuri love-triangle was initiated. And no, it was not my fault. Corecin: If this is your first time with a lesbian love triangle in a DnD game than you don't even have to specify that you're starting out. Octo: Oh no now Little will enlighten with the deep and complex subject that is hentai lore. Beetleboy: It shows what kind of person I am that I'm seeking crush advice on a forum about creating fictional organisms. Corecin: I am not in the mood for looking up yuri because then the FBI agent monitoring my computer will judge me with reckless abandon. Blue_Komrade: Excuse me sir I am going to have to see if you have your membership card to the Misanthrope Club. Parasky: Ultimately, by the miracle of microbiology and biochemistry, I have accidentally added an additional month to my brew and created a Bavarian style hefeweizen rather than the American style wheat beer I planned, despite technically not having the correct ingredients. However because I wrote down what I did wrong its not a mistake it's actually science. Rebirth: I can't be the only one curious about what would happen if you spayed and neutered a male antechinus before it reached sexual maturity. Ebervalius: Laws? What kind of spooky cuckery is that? Parasky: Ah see, but that's just the thing, you thought that I thought that you thought that I had said you hadn't read it, when really I had said that you had said that you thought that I thought that you hadn't read it.

I could understand rodents, pigs, and bovines, just as long as the situation gives a viable explanation, but I highly doubt scorpions. They've been around since the Silurian, meaning they've survived mass extinctions like the Devonian, the Great Dying, the K/T, and they don't seem to be dying off anytime soon. Also, like other people have suggested, I'd suggest explaining why certain features evolve for certain creatures, as it helps flesh them out a bit more.
