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.

Fascinating.

I silently wait for environmentalists to use the study to say "Trees have heartbeats! Don't kill them!".

- A History of the Odessa Rhinoceros: What happens when you ship 28 southern white rhinoceri to Texas and try and farm them? Quite a lot, actually.

Strictly speaking, its not really a heartbeat as the pumping mechanism is not a heart. Still rather interesting though.

Well hart is basically a highly complex blood pump,so....

I mean, "heart" is pretty broad anyway. As long as it's an organ that pumps fluids, is it wrong to call it a heart?
