Nothing in Jurassic World is natural, we have always filled gaps in the genome with the DNA of other animals. And if the genetic code was pure, many of them would look quite different. But you didn't ask for reality, you asked for more teeth.

I didn't know they do this, but I find the "people" part questionable and offensive.

Finns were made out of mud from the deepest and darkest bogs of Scandinavia as a last ditch effort by the elves who lived there to fight back against the mongol hordes.

Unfortunately all the elves were wiped out, but their mud soldiers survived and were absorbed into the mongol society. In time, the elves were completely forgotten and the mud soldiers began living as normal humans.

This is why the Finns invented the sauna. Unbeknownst to them, the steam and high heat of the sauna is a subconscious reminder of their creation process, as the elves employed magics closely related to the school of fire and smoke when they shaped the Finns out of the thick black mud of the Finnish soil

I'm sorry you're stuck in a country where you need to drink constantly because the alternative is being sober and in Finland, but your alcohol prices are all jacked up because people kill themselves in winter (probably because they realise they're in Finland).

Also are right wing racists still running your government?

my facts may not be 100% correct on this, but I think they were originally made to try to piss off finnish web users on image boards, but finns adopted the idea with open arms and now the only people bothering to perpetuate the concept are finns themselves
