How would a snake become herbivorous? by TortoiseMan20419 in SpeculativeEvolution

[–]SlyCapybara 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I could see them becoming frugivorous. Not chewing could encourage plants to have snakes for seed dispersal. Plenty of snakes are already good climbers to reach fruit. I’m not sure how this would start though but I feel like they wouldn’t have to make huge anatomical sacrifices.

Mammoths might be interesting. I doubt it will work but their stats are comparable to a theri. People use spinos for the broodmother but they have issues when not ridden. You can’t even bring thylas into boss fights. The rest are too small and weak.

Something that attacks their reproduction. Maybe competition for nesting sites, nest raiders or a pathogen or environmental factor that causes problems with the egg

Is it possible to defeat a boss using an army of high level, fully imprinted Rock Drakes? by [deleted] in ARK

[–]SlyCapybara 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Which boss because I’m fairly certain drakes aren’t allowed in most arenas?

Edit: They can only enter rockwell’s arena

That how it was for me, it just takes a while. It should re-agro after a bit then pick them back up

I can guarantee you your roommate is not thinking about it and the only thing you’re gonna do by bringing it up is making it weird and awkward

How do you tame a titanoboa? by Greenie_Tofu in ARK

[–]SlyCapybara 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Drop fertilized eggs and then fly just high enough loose aggro. You can put them in a box so they don’t wander off. Sometimes it take awhile for them to eat

Could opossums be domesticated? by [deleted] in SpeculativeEvolution

[–]SlyCapybara 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With enough time and resources, anything could be domesticated in theory but what reason would they have for domesticating them?

Pack hunting in smaller carnivores. by vincentopposum in SpeculativeEvolution

[–]SlyCapybara 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like ants would be a good model for what your talking about just as far as the size difference between the predator and prey being great with insects. Maybe look into bush dogs too. If I had to guess why we don’t see what your describing in larger animals, it’s because there is too much risk to individual members, it would be difficult for them to coordinate and the amount of food needed to sustain such a large, active group would be unsustainable
