| I like the fang jutting out of the lower jaw. I also liked the "demon duck of doom" I wonder if the scientific name for the demon duck will be like "duccus infernus" |

| Interesting. I wonder what happened to make the less vicious species survive. Maybe there were too many carnivores around at the time? |

Maybe the herbavor version had a more ample food supply. The one that best survives long enough to reproduce will continue on. I can't say, but its interesting to think about. There once were these nasty kangaroos that roamed the earth. but they dies off, because the herbavorous kangaroos were more fit than them. That can't possibly apply to humans! No, definitely not! Gotta have my steak! |

Oh come on, we're omnivours. What we eat won't kill us, it's everything else we do.
Though I am curious if it was the fact that that breed was inefficient. Maybe taken over by a better predator? |

The Killeroos weren't inefficient, they were just tired of eating their herbivorous brethren, and so they journeyed across the seas to South America where they are now known as the chupacabras.
...true story. |
