Imagine you are a
paleontologist trying to find
the “missing link” between
different species. In three to
five sentences, create a
fictional narrative about
your discoveries,
describing: 1) what two
species, mythical or real,
you are studying, 2) what
evidence you have linking
these species, and 3) what
evidence you have to define
different correlations and
causations that support
your hypothesis. (4 points)

As a paleontologist, I am captivated by the elusive link between two mythical species: the majestic Griffin and the enigmatic Hippogriff. While exploring a remote mountain range, I stumbled upon a fossilized fragment that exhibits characteristics of both creatures. This compelling evidence suggests a possible genetic connection between the two. Further investigations revealed similar skeletal structures, indicating a shared ancestry. Additionally, the examination of ancient cave paintings depicting the mythical beings together bolsters the hypothesis of their interbreeding. These findings reinforce my belief that the Griffin and Hippogriff are indeed connected, possibly evolving from a common ancestor and representing fascinating evolutionary adaptations.
