I’m a paleoanthropologist and one of the main theories one of my colleagues worked on was that people didn’t start domesticating animals out of necessity but through pets. We found a bobcat with a “necklace” on it, people buried with pets, it’s real interesting. Check it out

[@Viatoreptil]

So are Komodo dragons an example of island gigantism evolving from smaller monitors or an example of island dwarfism evolving from the giant Megalania?

[@Alexjholt2]

Depending on whether or not Megalania is a direct ancester of the komodo dragons or not, could technically be both. Australia is geographically separated from Asia in such a way that it was and is evolutionarily separated (hence marsupials) which would allow Megalania to get to the size it did without competing with big placental carnivores, and so a form of island gigantism. If then megalania or it's ancestors colonised Komodo etc, different pressures leading to insular dwarfism might then apply. Essentially, Komodo Dragons may be miniature giant monitor lizards.

[@curts7801]

More likely, megalania and the komodo dragon are related, rather than directly descended. I would say the Komodo dragon is an example of gigantism, and megalania an example of horrifyingly extreme gigantism. To drastically oversimplify things, Australia has an island effect, allowing two reptiles to take over as apex predators, with megalania taking the terrestrial systems, and saltwater crocodiles taking the waterways. The emu and cassowary set this further, and the diversity and size of the marsupials setting the final piece of proof. Once again, this has all been oversimplified, but it “answers” whether the 2 monitor species are examples of gigantism vs dwarfism.

[@marcustulliuscicero5443]

Birds are much more size-limited then bats because they use their legs for lift off, which are completely useless once they are airborne. Bats (and pterosaurs) can grow much larger than birds because they take off using their arms, which also provide lift during flight. This allowed pterosaurs to grow to the size of small airplanes whereas textinct birds like Argentarvis pretty much represent the largest a non-flightless bird can ever get.

1) There's no real standard in paleontology. Since nobody can do tests, it's based on who has written the most recent review of a group. : - ) 2) You can't, really. You can tell when the larynx reached the point where it could become able to make more complicated sounds, thus allowing for language, but you can't say that we started speaking in symbolic language at that time. 3) Yes. Check out plant evolution on Wikipedia. 5) Evidence suggests that wisdom teeth get rarer in each generation, which seems to be a direct result of evolution. It is, however, hard to tell on such short timescales.

A video discussing how ancient peoples may have found and interpreted fossils would be fascinating. It's been mentioned here and there but to be honest I've always wondered a little bit about it. Do we even still have any evidence from ancient times regarding those old bones, I wonder? I seem to recall learning (many years ago!) that the Greeks actually had bones that they said were the bones of giants, of Cyclops, and so forth. I imagine that the actual bones are no longer anywhere to be found of course, but have we found any other evidence regarding them? What kinds of fossils might have been found in those areas? Would they have even been fossilized remains, or just bones from modern creatures that were somehow really, really far from "home"? For that matter, I wonder if people today would be able to understand what kind of animal they were seeing, if all they had were a few unfamiliar bones?
