Storm Hawks/WMG
Lightning Strike is Aerrow's late father.
Bam. Might as well start with the obvious.
- One wonders why they even say "ancestor", and not "father", considering Lightning Strike died in what looks like his twenties when Aerrow was about four. Even more perplexing, when Aerrow finds out about the relationship, his only reaction is, "cool!" Wouldn't finding out one's long-lost father was a Storm Hawk elicit a more excited reaction?

These resemble some scientific conjectures about what a humanoid species on a lower gravity planet may look like. Plus, y'know, all those crazy aerial stunts they pull would be helped by lower gravity.
The Leapers are in fact members of Ridley's race, in their juvenile stage of development
This is mostly a joke, but they do look like a variant species of little Birdie. Possibly a group the emigrated to a different planet, and adapted different features.
Radarr is actually a child Blizzarian
Apart from tail length and the ability to talk, there is remarkable similarity between the Blizzarians and Radarr.
- Alternatively, Radarr's species came from Terra Blizzar.
