NESLife attempt #3

Tigers have a complex Stomach and they are not omnivore in any way. A complete stomach is just what it is, a more advanced one at digesting ones food. Humans pretty much prove that that stomach can digest both, but other genes in the animal say what the animal would eat. Mainly it's lifestyle.


There are many omnivore living beings that don't have a complex stomach and many carnivores that do.

But thats just what I think.


Hmm 2 genes... I wonder what the Finner can evolve into.
 
Spoiler :

Ragworm: Disenfrancised
Evolved from: Ragworm
Genes (4): Sucker Mouth x1, Complex Stomach x1, Swimming x1, Fluids Parasitism x1
Description: A much smaller variant of the Sucker, that attaches itself to the larger sponge species for long periods extends feeding tendrils into them and drains their fluids. Not yet a complete parasite as it is retains the Suckers complex stomach and is able to scavenge between sponges.


Ragcap: Disenfrancised
Evolved from: Sucker
Genes (5): Sucker Mouth x1, Swimming x1, Fluids Parasitism x2, 1xParasitic tendrils.

Description: The adult stage of the Ragworm became smaller and more adapted to its parasitic lifestyle losing its complex stomach. Now when it attaches it extends tendrils deep into its prey and remains anchored for the rest of its life, producing many small larve before its host and it expires.

I think you might be mistaking an Highly evolved stomach (of a specialized meat eater) with a Complex Stomach (which can digest almost anything, making the creature that has it an omnivore)
 
[wiki]omnivore[/wiki] :)
 
I propose the two genes for plant and animal eating, can be combined for an evolutionary point into omnivore x 1 and be seen as a simplification due to less genes.

You cannot become omnivourous without having both genes prior..
 
Plant and Animal eating? Who says those are the only two evolutionary directions? IRL there are actually three - plants, animals and fungus. :p

@DP: Loooove the picture of the Dendroalgae, just beautiful. :goodjob: Now to come up with some nice evolution of it...
 
I think for simplicity sake we are dividing only at plant and animal.. however if it is something you specialized in, i am sure DP would accomodate your success.



<-- Is wanting to send a crittur onto land, but knows its not the time yet..
 
Also, i would like to chastize DP for accelerating the move onto land with the random NPC lichen... don't make it easy for us to spread!!!!
 
I think some details are being left deliberately vague.
 
My mistake than. I thought Omnivorous means plant eater and didn't know it means all-eater at all.

Isn't it weird that all-eaters evolved before mean eaters?

i think that plankton eating is considered Carnivores (meat eaters) though it is weird that critters that eat decaying stuff and critters that eat everything (omnivores) evolved before Herbivores (plant eaters)
 
there are more than one kind of plankton... One that is plant another that is considered an animal.

So you can be considered carnivore or herbivore by the type of plankton you eat.


Oh and I found a way to say what my animal is most like I think. It's like an evolved animal-plankton bigger and more fish like.
 
Nitros Ridgius: Mauritania
Evolved from: Nitros Deepious
Genes (7): Mineral Eating x3, Swimming x1, Smelling x1, Pressure Resistance x1, cold blood respiration x1
Genes added (x2): Mineral Eating x1, cold blood respiration x1 (heart will do)

As the environment became the nemsis of the Nitros after it's migration to the deeps of the ocean natural selection no longer favoured the evasiveness of the genus but their ability to suck up minerals in the most energy efficient ways possible. As the counter current exchanger organ provided the most of the power any adaption which increased the rate of diffusion would improve the amount of energy.

So a system of using heated chloride solution to suck up the rocks evolved. The heat was collected by the Nitros basking near volcanic vents and stored in tubes between the salt absorption gland when the Nitros went feasting.
 
who made the dibblnipon?

and who made Bubble Slimeo?

Was there ever a Calzone speicies? Did the Calzone evolved come from cazones? or from plankton? I'm not sure...
 
Me
Me

Calzone.. dunno sorry!
 
IIRC the creature was supposed to be called Calzone, but DP got it wrong and called it Cazone instead in the update. Don't recall who the creator was though.
 
Lol I guessed the Nippon was yours...

I still need info of Cazone and Calzone Evolved. Is the second evolution of the first? I assume that not, in which case are they different families that died out?

Niklas there was a Cazone and a Calzone evolved.
Were they related?
 
Spoiler :
Dendroalgae: Niklas
Evolved from: Cryoalgae
Genes (8): Photosynthesis x3, Cold Resistance x1, Hibernation x1, Carpeting x1, Stems x1, Tendrils x1
Description (optional): From forming cooperative carpets, the step is not far to further cooperative efforts between the algae organisms. Spreading vertically to trap more sunlight in the open waters, the Dendroalgae were able to form veritable forests of tall, waving tendrils in the cold waters. To reach tall heights, they quickly discovered the best ways to group together to give strength and structure to the tendrils, forming what may be thought of as algae stems.


Algaceae Dendrocovitis
Evolved from: Dendroalgae
Old Genes: Photosynthesis x3, Cold Resistance x1, Hibernation x1, Carpeting x1, Stems x1, Tendrils x1
Added Genes (2+bonus): Stems +x1 (x2 total), Tendrils +x1 (x2 total), Mass Reproduction x1
Description: The appearance of slime eaters on the cold water scene was no cause for alarm for the algaceae. They were successful enough to thrive anyway, and the grazers would simply provide some necessary culling. The algaceae would simply continue to grow in large, peaceful underwater forests. The next generation continues to spread, vertically and horizontally, to catch as much of the sun as possible.

@erez: You know, you could find out if you read back in the thread... :p
