I see your point. But still, I feel the illustration is unfair to the billions
of mammalian individuals on the planet that *DON'T* wield machine guns. I
would have prefered an icon more indicative of mammals as whole, like a
mother suckling her young. This is only my humble opinion...
Anyway, in spite of our differences on the point, and knowing now that you're
on the 'Net, I want to thank you for three excellent and wonderful books:
_Archosauria_, _Synapsida_, and _The Canine Clan_!
