Bacale - Tumblr Posts

bacale, commonly called a landbound pidgeon, are mesocarnivorous frugivorous small flightless birds, they have specialized too not react to the toxins released by the flesh of rolling geckos when theyre eating them, they have been widely considered a living fossil on dumuno as a transitional species between the large flightless birds and the small birds of dumuno, though this isnt entirely true, it has evolved a lot since the time where certain small birds evolved into the large flightless birds, such as its more adjustable shoulder joints and its immunity to rolling gecko poison, they are around 3 feet tall on average and even have a decently high intelligence, being able too solve certain problems and understand basic language, though that doesnt mean they will listen too people due to them being fairly solitary animals usually only grouping up into small flocks during mating seasons and if they need safety, they also will attempt to cheat around problems theyve been taught to solve to get the reward, they have stable legs and it would take a lot to make one fall over, this is due to their natural habitats rough landscape, they were one of the main roadblocks in the way for the ancestors of the dumunoan humans to get from their mountain dwelling habitat where resources were far to limited for them to get advanced enough too get to where they are now, they are immune to the poison of the rolling geckos however the venom of the rolling geckos is still harmful to them meaning when theyre hunting one they need to be especially cautious of their tail, a risky but common move is too bite off the tail since their beaks wont be effected by the venom but it risks the fleshy parts of their mouths getting inflicted, if you have any questions regarding this organism please dont be afraid to ask
