Large animals have relatively smaller brains than small ones.
As we move from small to large creatures, from mice to elephants or
small lizards to komodo dragons, brain size increases, but not as fast as
body size.
In other words, bodies grow faster than brains, and large animals have low
ratios of brain weight to body weight.
In fact, brains grow only about two-thirds as fast as bodies.
Since there is no reason to believe that large animals are consistently
less intelligent than their smaller relatives, it must be concluded that
large animals require relatively less brain to do as well as smaller animals.
If this relationship is not recognized, the mental power of very large
animals, such as dinosaurs, will be underestimated.
请问以上黄色字体的翻译为何？一时之间头脑打结了上下两句逻辑串不起来，
请高手帮忙谢谢!!
