I forgot polar and brown bears cross with each other easily.

Yo, fuck off, cheetahs aren't panthera.

You know, I'm actually glad to see another piece on the sexual lives of insects. I'll take anything over the last couple chapters. Get those horny bees in here and tell me about them.

Avise is trying to get me worked up about endangered species, but the main thing I'm learning is that there's a whole lot of meat and eggs out there being sold under false labels.

Wow, this chapter is just fucking WRECKING the invasive species platform.
Also it's boring as hell because it's just Avise saying things evolved and are endangered over and over, without really telling me anything neat about any of these species. Also repeatedly declaring a lack of divine intervention even faced with a lack of alternate explanations that make any damn sense.

Great, invasive crabs. But... uh... what does that have to do with your book's theme? Oh, nothing whatever, you just wanted to talk about how sad you are for the environment? Okay, thanks for wasting my time then.

If it's instinctive knowledge of the species, then no, the hatchery fish won't change anything. If it is, in fact, learned knowledge, the hatchery fish won't have it. If you believe it's instinct, and that these are the same fish genetically, why are you worried? You CANNOT have both these things.

Being dead doesn't make you another type of lizard, wtf, Avise.

So horseshoe crabs match your "millions of years old" fossils in design, but show no genetic aberrations that mark them as a strange, out-of-time species... but you're still sticking to that evolution is real philosophy huh? It seems like this proves the opposite. A species that hasn't changed, but isn't remarkable compared to those that have seems to speak to another answer that is not evolution. Good job.
