Island Rule: Evolution's Size-Swapping Party
This meme brilliantly showcases Foster's Rule (or island rule) in evolutionary biology! On continents, animals follow typical size patterns—large species dominate. But islands flip the script completely! Large mainland animals shrink on islands due to limited resources, while small critters get supersized without big predators around. Think mini elephants and giant rodents! Evolution's way of saying "new island, new me!" Next vacation spot: Madagascar, where lemurs went wild with this evolutionary size-swapping party!
