This model doesn't seem too far removed from academia; at least in the "ideal" sense, ignoring the realities of attracting funding and academic politics. The turtle would go from PhD student to tenured professors; rabbits might be undergrads or non-academic faculty staff; birds might be people like librarians and lab techs.
