| Dec 9, 2019 at 4:31 | comment | added | Seraphim | @jamesqf, While your example on convergent evolution id true, it not the subject that being discussed. I was talking about the physiological differences like respiratory and skeletal systems and how they could change to increase in size. | |
| Dec 9, 2019 at 4:21 | comment | added | jamesqf | But there is at least one example of convergent evolution between insect and bird: the hummingbird and the hummingbird moth: fs.fed.us/wildflowers/pollinators/pollinator-of-the-month/… Of course the insect size limits still apply, but you could probably evolve an insect to resemble a mouse. | |
