See also their relatives, the Hydras, who maintain what we can infer as the ancestral Dracomorpha (Dragons and their relatives) body plan, but have instead multiple heads. Drakes are theoretically fore-runners to this, while I'd say given their eloganted form, Lung are related closer to those ancestral forms than to modern dragonsI could do a listing of the various groups and how it all interlinks.I have Sacabambaspis as an avatar. I can and will go off on crazed paleontology explanations at the drop of a hat.</blockquote>
