>>5397063Extreme natural selection tends to cause population divergence quickly. One example of this is the Lazy Feeder, a wide range of Flounder Feeders that opted to dramatically slow their metabolism instead of investing nutrients into a protective layer. They barely swim any more, bobbing in the water without reaction to their surroundings. This makes them less likely to catch prey but they don’t need to catch as much as their evolutionary brothers. They simply take what they can get and are largely harmless. In time, they might even transition into an omnivorous or scavenger species. Their cousin, the Skinny Flippers, are faring no better than most.
