The only physical force that can shrink the size of living organisms is gravity, not temperature. Shoosh, and I didn’t go to an Ivy League school.

Hah! Think Gravity will shrink Algore?

Natural selection, survival of the fittest. The smaller ones survived needing less to eat, so the species became smaller.

But I think you know that.

Gravity (a change in gravity) could reduce the sizes of the next or next-next generation of creatures of a given kind.
