Feliraptor
Physical Appearance:
Vocalization: A range of chirps, hisses, growls, and purrs (or similar sounds) for communication within its species, expressing warnings, territorial claims, or mating calls.
Evolutionary Path:
Such a creature could evolve from a small, agile ancestral theropod lineage that survived the K-Pg extinction event. Over millions of years, selective pressures for exploiting small prey niches would drive miniaturization, enhanced agility, and the refinement of sensory and predatory adaptations, leading to a modern-day theropod filling a similar ecological role to a wild cat. The key would be the continued success of the bipedal, feathered body plan in a world dominated by mammals.
Neosapiens
Neosapiens are race super beings. The babies can talk telepathically when they grow up they become highly advanced.
Updated canithere?
Well I had to update the canithere section because of the outdated design on Serina and the author Dylan even had to retcon it to update the design so that he would not have a reader have misinformation withing the timeline of Serina.
Animal sounds!
Future animals make sounds!
We got to have wolf howls and tiger roars for predator rats.
Next step in human evolution
What would human pollution be like in the future will we be super beings, vampires, or merman?

The Kelpie and the equinox fawn
Her voice sounds so beautiful to the young Equinox fawn, calling out to him, the sweet sound of comfort, of safety. He would know it anywhere. The voice is like his mother's, he comes closer and he is too young to walk long distances. Yet it gets louder and louder. He discovers a brown figure like his and the creature lashes at him and kills him. This was the Kelpie a Thorngrazer with a taste for flesh...
Our Right Mind
I am new to this complex thematic community, on the old side of life (dob 1944). Have been interested in speculative views of the universe since I can remember. In college, that turned into an emphasis on what is now called neuroscience. In the mid-1960s, experimental psychology was trying hard to be "scientific," which meant ignoring consciousness. Eventually I ended up getting my Ph.D. and combining the study of the practice of psychotherapy along with philosophy and theology. The most fortunate part of this was the opportunity to gain some mastery of the metaphysics of Alfred North Whitehead (Bertrand Russell was his student, later they co-authored Mathematica Principia). Whereas Einstein's theory of relativity focuses on objects, what …
Jungle Island World
This is Jungle World. It is a underground world where there's mostly jungle. There are no ice caps: so it is very warm there, but despite that; there are also some cooler areas in there world. It has all species from different worlds. It has 11 species of people living there. The animal species that live here are mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, arthropods, mollusks, synapsids, dinosaurs and surprisingly mythical creatures! The island itself is actually a super continent somehow! (Despite the name!) Despite being mostly jungle, it also has a least a small desert, a lowland, swamps and the ocean has many strange sea creatures. The jawless fish and arthropods first colonize the land oceans and rivers. Then a few million years late…

Just a reminder for all who want to add something to the speculative dinosaur project pages
Remember that the purpose of collecting all the files and information made from this fallen project is to collect and archive them for preservation and exibition, so if anyone wants to add their own ideas, they are likely to be deleted since this is not a community project, we are only compiling what was established as canonical before the page closed as some individual works made for the same authors.
In the event that there is still material that does not comply with these characteristics, then these will be removed.
The FUTURE is PREHISTORIC (Seriously...)
I have recently discovered a very interesting article from Scientific American website, that goes deeper though the idea with the future fauna which is upon us, may actually look more like the wildlife from the past than we think. As well inspire newer speculation projects later on.
Don't belive me? Then just read the whole page yourself right here: https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/laelaps/hot-fossil-mammals-may-offer-a-glimpse-of-natures-future/

Notic
I'm officially taking the New Pleistocene project under my wing. Much as I've criticized it, it's still a decent enough concept to work with.
I'll be working on the areas it covers one by one, starting with Australia, cutting out anything I find stupid or unnecessary, including creatures that were lifted whole cloth from other continua. In their place, I'll do my best to leave something decent behind.
I can't believe I'm saying this, but it's time to make this wiki great again.
Great Wik
This wiki is so good, and should change the front page, because it's still active and popular. I've had a great experience on this wiki and I'm gonna tell all my friends about it!!!

Life on Enceladus?
I recently watched a youtube video from Scishow Space (an interesting channel, you should check it out) about how, one of Saturn's 60 moons, Enceladus, could support life.
Enceladus is a moon of Saturn, wiht a diameter of only 500 kilometres, completely covered with miles of ice. Scientists once thought that liquid water couldn't possibly exist, but satellites report a gravitational peak in one area of Enceladus, where, strangely, there lies a massive depression in the ice. Scientists theorize that there is probably liquid water underneath that depression. In addition, Enceladus is probably tectonic and volcanically active, and volcanic activity underneath the surface could give a heat source, nutrients, and potentially anaerobic life that …
Plan for The Fate of the Earth
Like all projects, The Fate of the Earth has changed over time, but I'm starting to come up with a rough idea for how it should end up.
First, my to do list:
- Improve on all Quintenary habitats. This will include deletion and replacement of some creatures (especially implausible ones) and putting more detail into creatures. The goal is to get these articles up to the standards of the Neomesozoic articles.
- Write all Melacene articles. This will take a while, probably a month or two, unlike the improvement on the Quintenary, which should only take a week or two.
- Create flawless biomechanics for all Motophyta (a clade of mobile plants, which I've been thinking about since the beginning). Just this page could take up to a month, depending on how quic…
Sol: BI: Triturus giganteus
The next animal of Sol, and one that will take up much space if this ever does become a book....
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Giant newt (Triturus giganteus)- Giant newts are large pleurodelines (Newts), with an average size of 85cm, and some individuals reaching more then a meter. They are the top predators on the isle of Scott, which we know as the Scottish Highlands. They are endemic to this isle, as well as a select few surrounding isles.
Description
Their skulls have a different shape then other caudates, it isn't as rounded as modern newts, but not as long as a alligator snout, it's more in the middle. This large size however, also posed a problem, how do meter long newts maneuver …
On the implausibility of giant insects, and why tetrapods have remained dominant on Earth
Insects have been evolving since the Devonian, and over 1 million species have been documented, with more to come. Their diversity and success is unlike any other group of animals. And yet, we see no large insects, none even comparable to usual tetrapods. With this many species, one would expect to have tetrapod-like insects, and yet nothing like them exists. There are three main reasons for this, and these are the lack of an internal skeleton, their exoskeleton, and their mode of respiration.
The thing that has made tetrapods so successful is their bony skeleton, rather than their limbs, or anything along that line. For example, take the megasquid, from The Future is Wild. It lacks a skeleton, being a cephalopod, and yet is the size of a l…
Prehistory Wiki
Prehistory Wiki is a wiki created by Ibexgod, and it goes well with Speculative Evolution Wiki. I have joined the wiki, and I would suggest other members of Speculative Evolution Wiki do also. It has been receiving some vandalism, though, but this is all the more reason to help.
Those who want to join, please mention it in the comments section.

Why Cladistic Grouping is Wrong
1. Cladistic grouping requires a near-infinite set of nesting, which does away with the Linnean system of taxonomy. A well-known example is that the class Aves is part of the order Saurischia. Of course, there are more species of birds than would be able to fit in an order, and so birds are considered a class. Another example is the genus Varanus. Because squamata is such a diverse order, the monitor lizards were put into a single genus, while becuase of their diversity should be at least the rank of a family.
2. In order to retain monophyletic grouping, it must be established that the clades diverged at a specific time. The smaller groupings diverged at a time closer to the present. So, most species diverged within the last million years o…
What would become of the dinosaurs? Part one: Ankylosaurs
One of the eternal questions of spec evo, one that has been covered in many projects, like the speculative dinosaur project, and by kaptainwombat, in the form of "What if the asteroid missed?". I would like to cover this, but will not create a project, instead I will summyrise my hypothised fate for each respective group in this post. As I a side note, thier fate doesn't look good.
Also, on the aforementioned spec, I don't like what they did. The pterosaurs are gone, dinosaurs have lost no power, and the shift of power hasn't changed, all the same dinosaur groups have the same niches, and few went extinct.

Story of life: Evolution's next chapter 2-7 myf The British Isles
As said in a previous blog post, no pages will be created for Sol. Instead I will be working on: Sol: The British Isles. Here is the summary. First creature to come tomorrow.
_______________________________________________________________________________________
Like most of Europe, the former UK was heavily affected by rising sea levels. These changed climates, increased diversification, caused extinctions, and shifted the power of the animal kingdom. In the UK, this is particularly evident, what was once two defined isles, is now an archipelago. What was once a great place for human life, is now mostly shallow sea, what isn't, is small islands of temperate to subtropical forest. Sea birds are the most common life, while land mammals are no…
New Account
Hello, I'm JaggerTheDog, but in a different account.
My account just got blocked and I believe that its an error. I will use this as a temporary account until it gets fixed. However, it if doesn't this might be my permanent account unless I get banned for again for another unknown random reason or error. Wikia can produce a significant amount of errors at times, such as glitched pages etc.
The reason I wrote this up is that I have a feeling that people might not trust me or that they will believe that I am not Jagger. But I do have the same facebook and my information is correct, but I'm not revealing my personal information like age etc to avoid getting banned again.

Wrote this up while working the rough draft for an idea of the birds of britain, the "uncool" ones that is (Aka the ones that are relitively unchanged.). Felt it would be usefull, and needed to be posted here.
___________________________________________________________________________
Many projects on future evolution of the animals of earth focus only on a few species of a given environment, a snapshot of sorts. Aldo some may get of reasonably well, they still don't give the complete picture. This picture of an environment includes many species, some migrants, some rare vagrants, some of common residence. Those that fall into the former two categories are often skipped completely, however any modern environment has many such creatures, rar…
Sol: Fruit bats of the north Australian archipelago
UPDATE: Being put on hold for lack of will to work on the subject. I will be working on the environmnt of Caldumorbis Britain. From now on will be working on one ecosystem at a time.
Sorry this was late, but it is done. I've created two new subfamilys of friut bat, one of which may become two sister taxon (Subfamilys.). Which could be split, I won't reveal, yet.

An evolutionairy jump?
Been watching quite a bit of Monsterquest recently, just watched the Chupacabra episode, it was determined that the chupacabra is indeed a coyote, but at the end of the episode the narator said this: "Is it possible that winesses are seeing an evolutionairy jump to a new species?"(Skip to last two or three minutes to hear statement.). It got me thinking, the specimens feutured in the episode did indeed have unusually large canine teeth, long foot claws, a oddly tall sagistal crest, as well as the fact that they seem to be extreamly suceptible to exteme casses of mange(Skip to 10:00 to see the large teeth and crest.). Opinions? Fanged canines? Saber-toothed canids?(last one is a bit overkill/unlikely.).
New, cryptic, dwarf, widespread tapir from the amozan? Didn't see that coming.
Perhaps a little off topic, but I have been informed that a new specie of tapir has been described. T. kabomani is a dwarf, dark coloured, cryptic tapir from the amazon. Didn't see that one coming. See tet zoo for more info, an intire article infact.

As the titan seal and devil monkey pages are done (Posted, not done period.), and french rats are on hold, it's time for another preview, this time on the different bush deer. Perhaps a bit boring, as it isn't completly new, but it must get done sometime, sooner rather then later.

Titan seals: Titan seals, scientifically known as Titanopinnipus, are giant seals, the largest carnivorans ever, that live in Europe in the early Hiemsorbis. They are obligate carnivores, eating fish, cetaceans, and other pinnipeds. They are fully aquatic, and cannot go on land. There are three species, T. giganteus, the largest at 10m(30ft) long, T. gallico, the smallest at 5m(15ft), and T. communus, which is about the size of a northern elephant seal.(Page done.)

Categories;Re
The problem of pointless and unused categories has bee brought up before, but not fixed, we need to go trough and clean up the categories.
An idea, needs peer-review.
This page is not up to date with the Sol project, and is left here as an archive/seperate spec ONLY.
I've got idea for SoL, but it's not nearly as conservative as the bush deer. I'm talking largest carnivoran ever, a 30-40 ft seal to be exact. It lives 8-12 Myf, and lives on skandia and northern Europe in the early Hiemsorbis. Is this at all plausible? More details will be given if necessary, and if it is plausible, I'll create a page.
Also, I will making blog posts about planned animals for SoL, a preview of sorts, for "peer-review" before bothering adding. This will prevent bad creature from ever getting past the alpha stage.
Standard layout
Pages currently don't have a standard layout, some have say, anatomy, others have description, some have diet and behavior in the same section, some don't, etc. I think we should make a standard layout to make the wiki look cleaner.
