Adapting species man is likely to see if current living conditions continue.

The Spiked-Back Gopher- in an attempt to prevent becoming roadkill, surviving Gophers decide to develope a protruding spike in their back for future generations. In the hope it will be an effective counter measure against being run over by careless drivers.

The Radical Duck- Migrating ducks have determined that it has become too hazardous a journey migrating north and south every year due to hunters who shoot at anything that flies. They therefore have unionized and have developed a radar system similar to what humans use to detect guns. Once detected, having sufficient warning, will fly an alternate route.

The Vested Caribou- Caribou have become increasingly concerned that Eskimos are no longer hunting fairly. Its was bad enough when guns replaced the traditional bow & arrow. But with the intruduction of ski-doos, vehicles and helicopters to track them they decided that it was time to level the playing field. So they bested any human effort by developing a bullet-proof hide. Guaranteed to stop any high powered rifle bullet at close range, thus ensuring the herds survival.

The Invisable Fish- Fish have known for quite some time that they, far more than any other species are supplying an unfair proportion in man's food diet. They therefore have unanimous consent among the fish populace to camaflouge themselves. It was decided that being transparant was their best chance of survival. As a result fish have become pretty much invisable.

The Flying Chicken- Chickens have finally figured out that they are being groomed for slaughter from the very day they are hatched. And decide to join the Radical Duck Union. They therefore have learned to fly and have flown the coop.

I heard that the gopher communal government commissioned an in-depth study of the armodillo's decision to employ body armour and it's effectiveness as compared to the opossum's decision to do nothing here in the south. The gopher think-tank discovered that there are just as many dead armodillos as possums winding up in grannies' pots here in the south and therefore the think-tank decided that a more active adaptation such as the spike would be more effective than the passive body armour employed by the armodillo. I didn't believe that the gopher was such a reasoned species until I saw Caddy Shack.
