The worst part about spec bio in a fairly unchanged modernized world is definitely trying to navigate the evolution tree and how advanced a species should get in a relative length of time. Where should the cousin species diverge in order for the species in question to be roughly on par with human intelligence in the evolution stages

#save me from this hell #maybe they're just smarter / stupider lmao #is felibiodonacutus too long of a name. It's about as long as ''gigantopithecus''#though with wayyyyyy too many latin roots #slapping them shits on there like garnishes #a very dwarffortey way of thinking. There are dogs. And then there are dogmen. How are they similar? How are they different?#(aside from the obvious one is a normal dog and the other is a sapient race of people)#I am still in the brainstorming stages of this universe because the first iteration had all the races based off of modern animals #and i was like well why did they evolve to be so similar to these wild unsapient creatures if they had millions of years of divergence #so now i'm back to square one kind of #still thinking about how taur races could theoretically have evolved from earth-historical creatures #i mean obviously some mutation or birth defect to introduce more limbs onto a quadrupedal animal but when where why and how do they use that #as an evolutionary advantage instead of becoming burdened by it
