Bigger Scale of Lifeforms Unimagined

Just an article i decided to come up with involving past and present evolution of earth and maybe else where. Suitable if you believe in evolution of every species on earth.

You have probably heard of mystical beasts in folklore, but as everyone knows animals like that did exist in prehistoric times. Not just dinosaurs, which ranged to 70 feet high long necked sauropods and predators such as Giganotosaurus three times taller than a 6 foot human, this creature was discovered to be 10% bigger than T-rex.

Other species off reptiles such as Lioleurodon lived in the ocean and was around 49 feet long. But large mammals that evolved some time after. Mammals such as a large dog species about 2 metres high, sabre toothe tigers, and a tappar related to the rhino species. This animal was like a cross between a horse and a rhino, having a longish neck and no horn, it was around 15 feet high at the shoulders. today the blue whale is the largest animal ever, and on land the elephant is the largest animal alive today.

Us humans are the most intellegent species to have lived.

Now consider life on earth in the distant future, in several million years the human race will obviously have evolved or mutated into another species over time, it has happened with every other species wether natural selection has occured or not. An example is that people will genetically have darker skin if they have came from a group of people living in a hot sunny environment, not from the weakest being eliminated, but from the genetic chemistry gradualy changing generations down the line. I think that humans may evolve to have smaller bodyies, smaller nose, ears and mouth, larger eyes and larger cranium due to continues living of our present day environments and lifestyle.

If you have an open mind contemplate that maybe they are the beings people claim to see, big coincidence to have alien's with humanlike form as we are the only species to have this form throughout earths existence. !
 

I don't think the human form is the top design to be capable of both.

Heavy stuff Alan.  I wish I could do a bit of quick evolution and end up with a smaller body.  

Hope you don't mind, I've added paragraphs to the article.   I think it makes it easier to read.  

Have not changed anything else though.
