>>717343264no that's literally how squirrels work, the forget a significant portion of their seed stores, you can easily look it up, you don't have to believe or disbelieve evolution, that's just a fact you can observe when watching squirrels right now
and another example of nature not being perfect, simply good enough
Squirrels are not smart enough to remember very seed storage and just compensated by having enough seed storages that if they forget half of them, they still have enough food to make it through winter, and that just happens to be good enough
there's plenty of cases of "good enough" even in humans
we as humans rely heavily on vision, it's our primary sense by a significant amount and yet despite that, we're trichromate instead of tetrachromate
We know the latter is possible because nearly all birds are tetrachrome, even ones that rely far less on vision than us
So the question is: why do humans not have tetrachrome vision? Being able to see an extra color would be very helpful to a species as visually keen as us wouldn't it?
If you think humans were created, that's a pretty big oversight for a perfect creator
If however we are evolved then well, the answer is a lot more logical: our ancestors which were less visually keen than us, at one point even nocturnal, didn't need color vision, and we slowly grew to rely on it more over the many species that were our ancestors and it just happened that seeing 3 colors was "good enough", not perfect, but good enough to let us function
