    Predators tend to spend most of their time just laying around.

    We suspect dinosaurs were metabolically similar to Komodo dragons, which are also probably an example of island dwarfism. So they’re probably the closest analog we have. And they either eat scraps or lay in ambush. Which, you know, involves laying around for long stretches of time.
