The Morlocks In The Time Traveler
In "The Time Traveler" a goes thousands of years into the future onto the year 802,701 AD. In this time there lives two species of humans the Time Traveler identifies as the Morlocks and the Eloi. As the Time Traveler identifies the symbiotic relationship between the two species as the Eloi are clothed and fed by the Morlocks, and in return, the Morlocks eat the Eloi. The Time Traveler suggests that relationship formed as a result of the Morlocks being the working class of mankind working underground so that the rich upper class could live in luxury. The Time Traveler's theory on how the Morlocks and Eloi evolved into what they are resembles that of Charles Darwin's theory of evolution and natural selection.
After thousands of generations of living without sunlight, the Morlocks evolved into a horrendous humanoid species. They have dull grey skin, chinless faces, large greyish-red eyes, and flaxen hair on the head and back, and have a cannibalistic diet. The most likely reason the former humans have gained these traits is because of the Morlocks were the working class of mankind and their lives living and working underground. The lifetimes of darkness led to their evolution of large red eyes so that they could adapt to the darkness. …show more content…
Having to work for the rich upper class living in luxury, the Morlocks had a hatred of the Eloi.
The working class age of the Morlocks most likely had them have a poor income of money and had little access to food. With the animal extinction of their age, the Morlocks resulted to cannibalism on the Eloi. As with the Eloi being weaker than the Morlocks, they resulted with a diet consisting of
plants.
As the working class of mankind slaved away underground, the rich upper class became weak as all their power relied on money and wealth. As the extinction of animals came, the rich developed a diet consisting of only plants. With no animal protein, the upper class became even weaker and frail to become the Eloi. As a result the working class becoming the Morlocks, they easily overpowered the Eloi as they evolved traits that enabled them to hunt the Eloi in the darkness and gained protein as a result of cannibalism.
As a result of their evolutions and adaptations of living underground, the Morlocks overpowered the Eloi. As a result of their past they live in a symbiotic relationship benefitting both the species.
