You know a interesting thing about the Ptranosaurians is in ancient times they did actually torture other beings when they would defy them, at first in order to even know how to do it they had to study the Uvoa'vokan because their not physiologically equip to understand the concept and had to use a professional example they had forgotten long ago.

In time they eventually matured and began to forget what the point of such savagery even was, and thus it was outlawed, and forgotten.

These days they fail to comprehend the concept to a point that when tortured them selves they only get confused, for example when tortured for information they will only reply with "I don't get it, what exactly are you hoping to achieve?" The reason torturing them for information don't work is because psychologically they only understand the concept of "I am trapped and being threatened, activating fight or flight instincts" and thus when tortured to a point that some beings would surrender and give the interrogators their information, they would only have the fight or flight responses get stronger and stronger until their sanity is annihilated and at this point their abuse meter is off the charts, and they spend every continuing second they are alive shouting viciously in their primal language and trying to break free and kill you, at this point even if rescued by their own people even their own people will be unable to do anything but put them out of their misery once and for all.

This is a huge part of why they kill them selves to avoid live capture, to prevent this level of suffering at the hands of what they see only as savages.

And this ends my current long winded species trivia.
