Cute-E - Friendly Dragons

Published: Nov. 4, 2023, 4 p.m.

Welcome \u2026 to Cute-E!\nEvery October during Spook-E, we have fun speculatively evolving monsters from myths and stories, but we leave out the cuddlier side of fiction. In Cute-E, we\u2019re choosing kinder creatures and discussing how they \u2013 or something like them - might evolve under the rules of evolution and natural selection, pulling inspiration from organisms of the real world. This year\u2019s theme: Dragons.\nThis episode, we snuggle up with the sweeter side of dragons. How might natural processes produce intelligent, social, and even amicable draconic beasts? Our creatures to create this time: Friendly Dragons.\nJoin the Common Descent Discord server for more Spook-E discussion! https://discord.gg/CwPBxdh9Ev\nJoin us on Patreon to support the podcast and enjoy bonus content! https://www.patreon.com/commondescentpodcast\nWe\u2019re an Audible Affiliate Partner!
