Birds are the most common group of vertabrates around, or at least, the most noticeable. Certainly they are highly successful. Why is it odd some dinosaurs evolved into birds, considering it gave those species an advantage. If the extinction had not occured, pterosaurs almost certainly would have been outcompeted.

I don't think Sligs, Mudokons or Glukkons were necessarily those creatures. Even if they were similar, they technically wouldn't be any of those, since they'd (as far as we know) evolved independently of slugs, birds and octopi on our planet. If Glukkons or Sligs did evolve from creatures like that, that raises the awkward question of where the skeleton appeared from. Certainly Glukkons moreso, with such similar features to those molluscs, considering the Gloktigi is presumably related also.
lol. Lighten up dude. I was joking about the Dinos and birds.

As for the bit about the Muds, Gluks, and Sligs, I don't quite understand you. Are you saying that they aren't related to those creatures because of skeleton structure or some other bit on biology? Sorry, but I didn't get that last paragraph. Well, seriously, it's a videogame. A fictional videogame. I don't think it really matters that Oddworld has walking octopus gorillas that evolved from invertebres.
