Theropods Hunt on Smell

Zoo the dinosaur has deep grooves down her flank where other critters have hit her over the years. Crocodiles let plover birds into their mouths to peck scraps from their gums. These birds are so small that they are worth not eating in age for the pleasure of having someone else do your flossing. Zoo returns her to the ground like she's dismissing the maid. Is it weird to be offended that a dinosaur didn't make eye contact? I linger behind some trees until her shuddering subsides, hoping i haven't killed her.
