Hey guys u had a few ideas for this from a speculstive biology project me n my friend were working on.
Sheep sized scavenging birds descended fr sheathbills
A pack hunting barracuda like catfish
A bald headed scavenging parrot
A manatee like platypus
A numbat anteater
Sea beavers. Beavers evolved into manatee like seal creatures
Sea wolf. A predatory seal like otter that preys on sea beavers
A gliding spider monkey
A large thin spider with webbing between its legs to glide

PS would it be cool if u friend joined? He's not in the Zt community but he loves speculstive biology

Good.

Why like catfish?There's no need for them to adapt for eating from bottom, if they were hunting.I have an idea of them as herbivorous fish, which weren't hunting, but shaped like these and grazing on a seagrass beds.

Agree, good idea.

Venomous spines?Plankton eating by mouth shaped like duck bill?I like it.Only thing is it should be living entirely in water, unlike platypus in my opinion.Almost all filtrators, which can go on land, are from land ancestors, not water ones.

Not really a big fan of this, but acceptable.

Similar to leopard seal, but it's actually very good, as it's more probable for future world to not be consisting only of weird and marvellous animals, but also normal ones like this.

I like this thing.

Webbing isn't really plausible, I would advice instead of this making very flat and broad feet, that they could make jumping from heights less dangerous.Most modern gliding insects, like gliding ants, have something like this, only if you want gliding spider to catch flying insects I would suggest making them very broad and bigger than body, so it could easily fly.


Now my idea: Memezoa.It's entirely new kingdom of parasites, descended from memes (read about memetics on Wikipedia, if you don't know what is this).The problem with them is, they can spread just if someone have what is called ,,memezoan crush", which means for some reason having obsession with one thought, which can be made in victim's brain by ill person with memezoans in his brain.This creates neuron combinations in brains, new memezoans in victim's brain.This can lead even to insanity.If someone has contact with this animal or person, circle ends.I know, this may sound rather weird for being plausible, but if you will find more about memes and how they spread(like culture genes) just imagine how they can evolve later.
