Evolution is just the change in allele frequency of a population over generations. This includes 90% of the population dying before they figure out new food.
I wonder which came first, the invasive snails that look about the same as the other snails they were eating or the population decline of kites?
The fittest in this case would be the kites that could survive the lean times before the new snails had time to spread, which could mean quite a lot of things but probably isn’t related to them being picky about what snails they were eating as they starved to death.
Evolutionary adaptation doesn’t happen that fast, and the name of the bird is literally a snail kite lmao.
Guess what they eat?
Kites?

Fruit?
Old snail kite: I hate foreign food
Young snail kite: Get wrecked boomer, these apple shits are lit.
Old snail kite: Dies of starvation.
Young snail kite: fucks.
And so the cycle continues.
