Who I was, covered up in leaves

My mother heard on the radio this afternoon that butterfly fossils prove that the proboscis evolved a full geologic period before flowering plants did.

Me: "So what were they eating with them?"

My mother: "Aha!"

(She's suspecting carrion.)

Though does eating carrion count as carnivorous?

I should think so. You don't have to kill the animal yourself for it to count as meat. (I'd have failed my obligate carnivore roll years ago if that were true.)

Haha! Yes, good point.
