I'm always wondering how these dragons eat when there's like hundreds of them and they're all the size of houses. In the series it's shown that humans are incredibly small. They easily fit into the palm of a dragon's hand or on top of their heads. Judging by these descriptions, I've always had the implication that humans are relatively small compared to the cast. I imagine, say, the size of a small kitten?
With this in mind, why on earth am I hearing things like Clay comfortably dining on a single cow, or Arctic munching on hawks? And somehow Darkstalker ate a strawberry instead of accidentally inhaling it or something. These thoughts are plaguing me. How much do these dragons eat? Do they farm their food? I've only seen these dragons hunt. There's tons of these massive dragons surrounded by a bunch small food. In order to get a single meal a dragon would need to hunt around three elephants, and that's only for one meal. Can you imagine a family of Mudwings converging upon a single forest for thanksgiving dinner??? No life would be left in that place once by the time they leave.
I'm a nitpicker and I know it, but surely someone else here must've wondered how the existence of all these dragons hasn't somehow created a global mass-extinction event, or that the food is either way too big, or humans are far too small.
