Hey, so... I know that the "animals with eyes on the side of their head are prey- and dragons on eyes on the of their heads" post is like...funny. very Tumblr. A+ content.

But I'm starting to see people just like...repeat that as though it's like....a fact?

But...we do know that 1. Front facing vs side facing eyes are just about whether field of vision or depth perception was selected for and 2. .... dragons are based on predatory *reptiles* right?

Yall know crocodiles aren't a "prey" species, right?

#i mean baby crocs do get predated #very few animals are like exclusively at the top or bottom of the food web #anyway I keep seeing people mimicking that original post like its some.... deeply profound insight about dragons #when dragons are basicalky just man what if a croc could fly that would be fucked up right #fun fact crocadilians arent lizards #crocs are more closely related to birds than to lizards
