That is so cool, mother nature is an awesome designer...
ReplyDeleteInteresting!
ReplyDeleteParallel evolution. Same body shape from two dissimilar creatures...
ReplyDeleteKinda like Kangaroos and Deer. Same basic position in ecosystem. Same general body shape. Well, except for the long legs on the 'roo. Both bounce around and can jump a tall fence. Both will kill your car quicker than a telephone pole...

ReplyDeletedeer taste better. trust me. as in trust me.
DeleteKangaroo tail is good, actually much like venison. The rest of the 'roo makes good cat food (though Aboriginal people will disagree.)
