Evolution Theory #2: Yots And Hoys

Hello Batlings!

Today, I want you to imagine two intelligent species; one bigger, stronger, and with more stamina, the another smaller, smarter, and more cunning.

Let’s call the two species Yots and Hoys.

          

The Yots and Hoys would perhaps develop a symbiotic relationship:

            Thanks to their greater size, strength, and stamina, the Yots would do more of the heavy work; they would give the Hoys rides (in this theory, they are quadrupeds), move massive objects, and do more things that the Hoys would be incapable of doing themselves.

            The Hoys, on the other hand, would do more of the more scientific/precision work; they would do surgery, designing, and other things the large, quadrupedal Yots just couldn't do.

There would, of course, be exceptions; every intelligent species would have people fit for designing and people fit for construction; but, on the whole, that’s how I think two such species would evolve together.

           Or they would destroy each other; the only surviving members either parting ways, or learning to co-operate to fight off extinction.

Just something to think about; do you have any ideas for symbiotic relationships between intelligent species? If so, please comment!

Goodbye Batlings!
