Chapter 1: Introduction to the Island

Imagine, a tropical island 5-6 times bigger than Madagascar In the middle of the South Pacific sea near the arctic. Implausible? Yes, but the reason the island probably hasn't been detected has been because of constant Storms and Fogs in addition to the island itself being in the center of a massive swirling storm system. In the beginning when this was just another part of a giant continent dinosaurs and other prehistoric reptiles came to island from either temporary land bridges or floating mini islands. Eventually the island broke away from the rest of the world and drifted to an area where it would be safe from the KT extinction event. During this time the animals would have evolved into modern forms and have grown twice the size of there original forms due to island gigantism. The dinosaurs grouping twice their size of their ancestors and the mammals growing three times the size to survive the reptilian and insectoid the Cambrian period to at the latest the Pleistocene period, creatures have come from all different time periods to this island and have adapted to fit in the best that they can. By the time later animals came to the island the originals have grown large enough to survive the new creatures and so on. To adapt to there surroundings the vast majority of them have undergone convergent evolution to develop characteristics of other creatures, and camouflage to blend into their surroundings. The mammals have only slight differences due to being the newest species on the islands.
