The Age-Old Egg Debate
Look, we’re not going to pretend we know a thing about the whole chicken vs. egg debate. All we know is that now, we have both chickens and eggs, and they’re both very delicious when cooked in the right ways. That said, we will say this: the person advocating that the chicken came first is extremely confident in their ridiculous answer.
We’ve never heard of any creature “deciding” that a change in mechanism would be potentially better to protect its offspring from predators. It sounds like an interesting idea, but nobody can know for certain whether this is true without observable, testable evidence.
