Description
Well for the past 3 days I have been thinking on how the lateral jaws would go on these creature and I have decided to simply have chrysaorin have 2 jaws.But anyways these are heavy beasts that mostly live around the forests and are usually found lying in mud puddles or sometimes piles of fecces of much larger animals. Only at 3 ft tall theyare pretty hefty wieghing about 165 lb. Some species are ominivorous while others are carnivores. With such massive jaws sometimes problems arise when it comes to eating to solve this they have evolved a long grasping tongue and after food has been cut into slices the tongue pulls it into the mouth, and like most Chrysaorin animals it has a gizzard to finish the job.

ah, I like these! lthough, the teeth of some of the carnivores look a bit too fragile, and rather impractical as well... because I assume these jaws are in fact meant to chew animals, rather than simply grabbing and awallowing, it seems rather likley thet the tips of some of the more exagerated teeth would break off during the chewing process...
the herbivorous heads turnedut well though!

well the teeth are used more for a slashing style rather than chewing in the carnivores. I have thought of them more as a ambush predator that eats smaller animals, or flying invertabrea. Thanks for your opinion though it always helps having people tell me what they are thinking about my artwork.

allright, even as ambush preadators though, thier teeth would not likley be that long...
