>>936907>The skeletons of modernbirds – owls and parrots, for example – have long, slender neck skeletons, but overlying skin and thick feather coverings obscure these entirely. Extravagant head, wing and tail feathers present in some birds are not reflected in the underlying osteology either, and the manes, ruffs, thick furry coats and extensive amounts of skin linking the body with the limbs in many modern mammals are, similarly, not suggested at all by osteology.

>>1518100well, we did kinda. we largely no longer live amongst giants due to humans. i think the last mass extinction event that happened was when the people now called "natives" of the Americas, came over from Asia 15000+ years ago. they slaughtered the megafauna in large numbers, and perhaps coupled with changing climate (warming after the ice age), lead to it so they couldn't repopulate themselves at the rate they needed, leading to extinction.

>>1518187This is such a shame. Even more recently this has been happening, for example with wild salmon. As little as a century ago it wasn't unheard of to see 100lb chinook salmon, whereas nowadays they weigh like 30lbs on average. They reach maturity way faster now and generally don't grow as old which can for a large part be attributed to overfishing and other human factors.
Humans are proving to be a plague on the world again and again.

We don't have skeletal evidence for it, there would probably be a lot of female skeletons with healed broken bones if everytime cavemen wanted to bang they'd beat them. It wouldn't be very reasonable to hurt your own tribe if you wanted it to survive. There was cult of feritility back then so in my opinion women were important on some level.

Natural “repellants” don’t do shit when you’re in the deep woods. Tell me you’re a city girl without telling me you’re a city girl. The only wild critters I’ve encountered that aren’t covered with visible amounts of external parasites when you get super close to them are possums, and that’s cause possums have lower body temps than most mammals and they also eat up any bugs that might get on them. Hell, the nicest most temperate summer weather I’ve experienced, I couldn’t stand being outside the small “city” cause the second you got in the woods fucking big ass black flies would bite you. They didn’t have mosquitoes up there but there’s always some awful biting bullshit bug around and there’s TONS the further into the woods and further away from civilization you go.

These things make me think, males have evolved several features and behaviours so they can bypass any female defense and reproduce (via rape, often) despite not being chosen and also they have methods to "cheat" and fuck over male rivals (even physically, like the dick thing above). You know how some female animals have evolved ways to counter male "cheating" or rape, like ducks or hyenas? How come human women never evolved anything like that?
