Today I would like to discuss the difference between a llama and a duck. When shown pictures of llama's and ducks in quick succesion we can actually see that they may in fact share a common ancestor. It is my theory that they both originated from an underwater animal that looked somewhat like a large platapus with a very small bill. But over time they eventually began to evolve into more land orientated animals. This is where we see the two species begin to branch off. The first main difference that we see is that the ancient ducks, known as Deucalion Tullus, stayed more towards the water area and thus began to grow feathers, and eventually their fins turned into wings and they shrunk in size. But the ancient llamas, known as Killian llamus, went more towards land. It traded in its fins for long legs, and grew fur. And that is the story of how the llama got its feet.
