    It’s more funny/sad if you consider how successful chicken are from this point of view.

      Symbiosis doesn’t mean both parties are happy about it.

      chickens as a species, sure, but there’s something to be said about the happiness of each individual chicken. read a book once that was like “the more successful a species as a collective is, the less happy each individual is” or smth like that :(

      If you want there to be a lot of your species, the best thing to do is become delicious to humans.

        Unless you’re a giant tortoise.

        It took 300 years to properly classify them. Specimens never survived the voyage back to Europe because they were too delicious.
