"The big horror lizards were now concentrating entirely on their meal. Only the leader sometimes stretched his nose up in the air and sniffed. Their species had existed on the planet for millions of years before man. If they were left in peace, they would take over all niches of life again. There would be no new species of any other kind on Southworld. Evolution would halt for millions of years."

"The other horror lizard didn't have much power left either. But the irrational hatred gave the big horror lizard new powers. The predator crawled along the tree trunk ever closer. The alpha male realized that he could no longer escape. It was time for the final fight. The one he had always tried to avoid, and the one the big horror lizards were just waiting for. He got up and waited for his opponent. His thoughts rushed. The big lizards are slow in their movements. Clumsy. Heavy-footed. Move fast, he told himself. The problem was that he felt tired and weak. He didn't know was he flexible enough to outsmart this much heavier opponent. However, the big lizard's hanging tongue was a good sign. They were both equally exhausted."
