* Fuglene opstod i 1999, da den sjældne fugl, jacob, kom ud af sin farfars røvhul. det er også derfor han er så brun. Han begyndte straks på WoW, hvor han var et år om at stige i lvl 2, inden hans storebror, mr carry, tog over. Han har altid været en pestilens for sine omgivelser og vil være det indtil den dag han kommer i bur, hvor han hører til.

Fuglenes oprindelse kan undersøges takket være en række fundne uddøde fugleslægter, der har mange særlige skeletkendetegn.

En del tyder på at fugle stammer fra en bestemte gruppe dinosaurer,[1] og er meget nært beslægtet med familien Dromaeosauridae. Fossile rester af Dromaeosaurer og primitive fugle har mange lighedstræk, og derfor bør alle fugle kaldes for 'flyvende dinosaurer'. Fugle stammer altså ikke fra flyveøgler [2] , som ikke engang var dinosaurer, omend nært beslægtede til dinosaurer.

Der er i de senere år (siden 1990'erne) blevet fundet en del fjerede dinosaurer, måske et klart bevis for en forbindelse mellem dinosaurer og fugle. [3] [4] De fleste af disse fund er fra Kina, hvor fundsteder med de nødvendige omstændigheder til bevaring af fjer- og hudaftryk findes.

[5] [4] [6] [7] Udviklingen af flyvning hos fuglene eller deres dinosaurforfædre er således mere kompliceret end som så. [8] [9] [10] [11] [12]

Senest er der dog igen dukket tvivl op om fugle stammer fra dinosaurer, da man har fundet fugle fra før dinosaurernes tid. [13] Herudover har man opdaget at alligatorer ånder ligesom fugle. [14]
