If Zerg were to infest Earth...

lol hope you know baboons are freakin viscous

I've heard stories of infanticide. Of course they've got a wild side; they're untamed, instinctual animals. I was just talking about their other wild side. :P

Monkeys may provide inspiration for the Zerg, whether they'll provide any useful genetic material is another thing.

I believe that was from Shadow of the Xel'Naga, the story of the unearthed "temple" and the sighting of the first energy creature. Old Blue was a mutated hound dog, and the Roverlisk was a new strain developed based off of his great sense of smell and speed, but the strain was lost with the brood's destruction.

God that was such a bad story, almost as bad as the concept of the Roverlisk itself.

Old Blue was a mutated hound dog...

Makes me wonder at all the things sent along with Doran Routhe's expedition and the super carriers, and how. For example, were there actual blood hounds sent along in cryonic hibernation? Was their genetic code stored in ATLAS's computers and replicated in some fancy-shmancy test tube? Were they forcefully evolved from local wild life? Or did they just apply the old earth term "hound dog" to something that happens to have four legs?

(I really have to wonder about that last possibility. As dumb as some of the terrans are, I find it hard to believe a seargent can mistake a zergling for "some poor feller's dawg." But hey, maybe dogs cost too much for some small colony like Mar Sara to afford, and he just heard stories of dogs?)

Maybe a 'dog' is simply now the generic term for someone's four-legged pet?

It wasn't the sergeant, it was some lowly idiotic private.
Also, it was dark and they weren't paying attention while listening to garbage music.
