User blog comment:Mystic Monkey/Sonic's World Creation Theory/@comment-28986801-20180609074612/@comment-679780-20180609160221

This fan theory of mine is based on video game canon. Theres no mobini, just regular animals.

Despite how different Sonic's Earth is to our real Earth, especially with mobo sapiens (mobians), Sonic's Earth still had hominids and animals living and evolving on the planet just like how we as humans evolved from hominids.

It could be possible that Light Gaia's minions or prolonged exposure to chaos energy has influence the evolution of specific breed of animals but I am not entirely sure about this. In early Sonic games, "Flicky" was simply the name of a bluebird or sparrow that was freed from various badniks. However the game Sonic 3D Blast identify Flicky as a species of birds. This lead me to question if the other little critters found in badniks are either simply small common animals with names or they they are sub-species to other animals like tiny bears and wild cats etc.

Eitherway, I regard that Sonic's world has just as much of an animal kingdom as our world.
