When two different species appear similar in shape and form it is called Convergent Evolution.   Underwater throughout the Pacific from pole to pole and east to west the shape and form of many animals and plants appear as Palms.  Just imagine how many other planets around the Galaxy have similar Palm like creatures.

Like Squirrels and Australian Sugar gliders. They are unrelated but have the same adaptive traits. Desmoncus versus Calamus.  Could go on for hours with examples from Earth, let alone going that far thinking what we don’t actually know about the Galaxy !!!

For every decade that I am still alive there are fewer surprises as my imagination expands.  Should there be 42 other planets in the Galaxy with Palm like creatures, there are Oh so many Galaxies to imagine further.  Even if there is only 1, no disappointment.
