Spec Evo Serina, Ultimocene, 270 Million Years PE- Savage Gravedigger
“The largest gravedigger species is descended from the tundra gravedigger with some hybridization with the southern. It is a hulking animal which weighs as much as 180 lbs, making it as much as nine times as big as the thalassic, and is the end-product of millions of years of selection against planning and tool use in favor of brute physical strength. The plumage is very thick and the soles of the feet are completely feathered, while the tail feathers are carried higher than in others, perhaps to avoid them being covered with ice. With massive crushing jaws, huge claws and a muscular build, the most notable trait of the savage gravedigger, D. atrox, is that it has lost the spark of sapience that characterized its ancestors. Forged in Serina’s coldest and harshest habitable environment, the extreme hardships forced upon their ancestors reduced the size and complexity of their brains in order to reduce their calorie requirements. Another extreme adaptation which this species has evolved is some capacity for hibernation; to survive prolonged food shortage they may retire to a den for weeks at a time, ceasing to eat and falling into a state of torpor where their metabolism slows much like a bear’s. They are not yet well-suited to this emergency survival measure, however, and a significant number of younger and older individuals forced into this torpor starve to death before they re-awaken.”
