The t-test on the pruned data also revealed an additional difference between the intercepts of mammals and reptiles in the relationship of humeral length to body mass as well as femoral to humeral length.
Test your heat source with a thermometer to make sure it doesn't get hot enough to injure your reptile.
Some groups died out well before the K T boundary, including flying reptiles (pterosaurs) and sea reptiles (plesiosaurs, mosasaurs, and ichthyosaurs).
