Evolution
Can you discard the Carnivore trait, and do traits that do not fit a species' diet still score?
The rulebook scores each Trait Card on a surviving species as one point, and the designer confirmed the Carnivore trait can be discarded.

Yes on both counts. The Carnivore trait counts as a trait for scoring and can be discarded like any other trait, with or without a replacement. Traits that do not fit the diet, such as a Carnivore card on a Long Neck species, stay on the species, do nothing, and still score one point each.
