This post grows out of a discussion being had in Coti Technologies Project. It's intended to show how a Dwarinian Universe could evolve without aid of the "Grandfather". It also expresses MTU and how these races evolved without the influence of Aliens.
Darwinism main idea is that species evolve to fill a niche within the regional ecosystem of a world. They are well adapted to fulfill the role they fit in the ecosystem. Dominant species such as mankind are able to control their environments to a certain degree and adapt to new ones as they expand their territory over the world.
Mankind is of primate stock but few people realize Lemurs are a part of the primate family. We will tend to answer Chimpanzee, Gorilla or Ape when asked the question about primates. Lemurs according to the dictionary are: Any of several arboreal primates with soft fur, large eyes and a long tail. If you follow the Darwin’s theory of Evolution you see Vargr and Alsan in the making.
A lemur like animal begins life filling a niche of being a tree dweller for several million years. The world is tropical at this time and vast forests cover most of it. Both the Vargr and Alsan are hunters whose major prey is the smaller animal living in the canopy with them. As time goes on they both come down out of the trees and begin exploiting the ground underneath the canopy. Their hands and feet at this time developed for grasping onto the branches that have been their homes for the last several million years.
This example parallels the scientific view of the development of Mankind. We too were once arboreal and for some reason and moved from trees to the ground. The most likely causes were environmental or population pressure forced us to the ground.
Vargr with their canine like facial features hunted in packs and were the most successful of the tree borne predators. When they reached the ground they continued to use the pack as a successful form of gathering food. Alsan on the other hand may or may not have used the pride system to gather food at this point. Alsan could have been solitary hunters. Everyone see a second race of Alsan appearing here?
As the Vargr population developed an upright posture and began expanding across their world evolution was still at work. Those who remained in the savannas and grasslands developed brown fur, those who remained under the trees developed reddish brown and black fur. If evolution were still advancing the Vargr’s body at this point, those who moved into alpine and arctic climates would develop dark fur. By this time, they have started using tools and fire. As the population grew, clashes between different groups moving into these areas would cause the Vargr to seek others of their kind who look exactly like them. Thus we have the basis for clan like behavior.
As their culture formed this clannish behavior continues. Nations are formed and wars are fought. Three distinct clans are formed: Shenar, Rocnar and Husnar. Shenar or savanna Vargr would have brown and black marking like a German shepherd. Rocnar or forest Vargr develops the red and brown marking like Doberman Pitchers. They also have narrow snouts to reach inside tight spaces. Last group the Husnar or Alpine Varge have developed black and white fur much like a husky’s markings and broader faces.
This example of Darwinism is based on the principle most working dogs were domesticated from wolf. It takes into account that these types of canines would most likely survive through rigors of evolution. There is no needing too genetically alter the race because like us it developed along parallel lines of evolution. Using this as the basis for all primate evolution, we end up several races of primates.
