Re: ORNITHISCHIAN EYES

> I suggest that the reason ornithischians got palpabrals in the first place
is so that the eyes wouldn't fall out of their heads-; or more exactly, so
that the eyeballs and eyelids would have ample attachment areas within the
eye socket because the frontals were so thin and narrow side-to-side.>

I was hoping that there might be some indication palpabrals were involved in
male competition.  Then ornithischians would be ornery and 'orny, eh?!
Oh well.
