Mostly & recreating plastic dinosaur toys as convergently evolved "Lost Island" creatures. This kind of application would be great for Style xfer via involves AI in the process.

A lot of dragon Pokemon keep convergently evolving into plane-like forms. That seemed to be starting to develop in Garchomp so I pushed it to the logical conclusion. I also wanted to mix in a nod to Macross because Pokemon loves sneaking in Japanese pop culture references.

Since Tyrannosaurus mad low frequency grumbling bellowing noises, it’s safe to assume that Terence from angry birds convergently evolved into T. rex

I love convergent evolution I just wish it was more talked about outside of carcinization. Can we talk about Calicotherium, the horse built like a gorilla??

The Queensland Tiger, an Australian cryptid for
Got carried away thinking about the theoretical evolution and trying to stay accurate to descriptions. Based it mainly on thylacoleo with influences taken from quolls and cats for convergent evolution!

Project Praya Entry 1: While Praya is rich in plant life there exist another clade of organisms completely unrelated to any organisms under the Plantae classification but convergently evolving to fulfil sometimes similar lifestyles

Denice - benitoite
" Benitoite is a rare blue barium titanium cyclosilicate, found in hydrothermally altered serpentinite. It forms in low temperature, high pressure environments typical of subduction zones at convergent plate boundaries. "
mohs scale hardness - 6-6.5

this one is very important too altho the cats are inaccurate since they're serial not convergent cat acquisitions and also that's meant to be chlorine-as-a-cat and not amaretto xD but this is probably arsenic-90's-00's era?

This and that Ankylosaurus that looks exactly like the hollow cheap mouth agape dinosaur toys. Its like convergent evolution, but in toy form.

My home state of New Mexico has been the living place to many amazing animals. One particular favorite of mine is also one of the best examples of convergent evolution. First image is an amazing illustration by the very talented artist . Long ago in the ancient forests

I'm here to settle this. Wyverian's don't lay eggs, as they're most likely a convergently sapient race derived from the ape beasts, note the immediate anatomical similarities. Whether Lynians also fall into this category is possible, but unknowable.

It's a case of convergent evolution.

These guys are only related in the distant past, but if you wanna fly, you gotta have a broad surface that gives you lift, right? And because these dudes DID all share a common ancestor, adapting the parts comes out looking pretty the same.

Bats and dolphins evolved echolocation in the same way (down to the molecular level). An analysis revealed that 200 genes had independently changed in the same way and this is an extreme example of convergent evolution [read more: https://t.co/dK4loFbuEe]

Testing for convergent/divergent behavior is always interesting. in this case, things tend to evolve into spheres or accidental spaceships.

The Rauisuchians were a group of Crocodile relatives from around the time dinosaurs first appeared, they're Interesting becouse due to Convergent Evolution (AKA Animals evolving similar features dispite not being releated) they look a lot like actual dinosaurs dispite being
