  1. Maybe the fact that they're preserved indicates some kind of cataclysm and the young were the first to succumb, and so we're witnessing extinction.

  2. It's what we call "leaverite," as in "Leave 'er right where you found 'er."

  3. Actually, I kind of doubt that's what goes through the "mind" of a lizard eating smaller members of its tribe. AVOIDING eating a smaller member of one's own species would be indicative of some kind of discrimination taking place. And who knows what goes through a lion who kills and maybe eats the cubs that were there before he came along? Maybe it's more that there's something about HIS cubs that causes him to refrain. We see how it impacts selection. We can see how such a gene would be passed on down the generations. But maybe those other cubs just have the stink of the old Pride Master on them. Or maybe he has to witness his own being born before there's any kind of bond.
