A Haruspex and a Biologist

A Haruspex and a Biologist
From looking at the guts of dead albatrosses a biologist can often say how the bird died. And it's usually due to the ingestion of plastic materials. I wonder what a Haruspex would say of our future by looking at those same guts... What do you think? Let me know in the comments. Do you know what a Haruspex is? Well, look it up and learn something new.
