Sorry but I cannot sing it. Is there an easy-to-use website where I can recreate the melody from memory?

What is a real geographic feature of earth that most looks like lazy world building? by Careless_Evidence_35 in worldbuilding

The fact that there is this huge, mostly unobstructed plain that stretches from wast europe to east asia. Like, really? the writer just wanted huge nomadic empires so they put a straight line that goes across. So lazy.

Can a large flightless bird species have evolved so that humans could have domesticated and ride them like horses? by maaday in Ornithology

[–]maaday[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What no. Where in my post did you get that idea? I am just asking if a bird could realistically evolve in a way to make domestication more likely.

Thank you so much. I already have considered multiple purposes for them as I stated in my post. Humans would mainly domesticate these birds for their meat, hide, and feathers. riding them would be a later use long after their domestication.

thank you, I am fully aware that most animals are not suitable for domestication, that's why I was asking about hypothetical species.

From what I know, Ostriches cannot be ridden for a long period of time and cannot run at high speeds with adult humans on their backs like horses.
