^Also another thing to add is just because Lao Shan Lung are weak to fire and dragon elements means that they're immediately going to be killed if struck with said elements. Also if I'm not mistaken Ashen-Lao Shan Lung live around the Volcanic Belt so I'm sure they can repel fireballs with their heavily armored backs. Another thing to add is that while a fatalis may have the tools to kill a Lao-Shan Lung does not mean they're going to kill them in an act of predation. Look a Giganotosaurus for example they possesed razor sharp teeth designed to tear through flesh and cause massive bleeding and shock but that didn't mean that a single Giganotosaurus would attack and kill an adult Argentinosaurus. In a group its possible but alone highly unlikely even against old or sick individuals. The point I'm trying to make is that instead of going after something many many times larger Giganotosaurus and fatalis would rather prey on animals much smaller and less dangerous.
