I was playing Halo last night and I noticed something strange about the relationship between the Elites and Jackals. Could they be distant relatives of each other, possibly from the same planet? I have a few examples to support this.

1.) Both the Jackals and the Elites have purple blood.
- much like the similarity of red blood that all animals on Earth share
2.) The joints in the legs are the same.
- If you stare at there legs they both seem to be jointed at the same places.
3.) Movement is very much the same.
- Unlike a Grunt's hopping, the way the Jackals walk from side to side is much like
the Elite's evasive running from side to side.
4.) They both have hooves.
This is probably the wrong way to spell hooves but ok. Even though Grunts also have
hooves, they have toes, unlike the Jackals and Elites who only have a hoof.


I'd like to hear yalls thoughts on this.

Mabey...but look at the differences. Their faces are NOTHING alike. Jackles are way shorter then elites, elites are faster, stronger. Their voices are different.

I think the main thing is the faces though. There would be some relationship between them if they were related, and there just isnt.

I see where your coming from with the faces. But with the sizes it's different. You see that impanzees and Humans are related but they are not the same size.

The covenant could be very old, so mabey they are just distant relatives that have gone through many years of evolution.
