well indi, as you can see from your picture, sangheili have belly buttons, that mean there warm blooded. Mammalian females produce milk. So yes, sangheili females do indeed have boobz. And as you can see from halo wars, they can survive in a cold climate, something a cold blooded reptile would die from.

This isn't about which looks more attractive to you guys, though. xD The question was: Which do you all think would be more accurate? This. ------------- And Frosty, any thoughts on how mammals are do not apply to aliens- they're not from Earth. Thus, they don't have to follow any of our silly rules regarding species don't matter. They don't HAVE to have mammary glands if they have belly buttons. For that matter, we don't actually even know if Elites even have navels- it could just be a touch Indi added because she likes her Sangheili to look like that. Quite honestly, it hasn't been resolved whether Elites lay eggs or bear children via cervix. It is unknown whether they are warm-blooded, because they are neither mammals nor reptiles. They could just be warm-blooded, scaled creatures. Reptomammals. They don't have to have breasts, really. In all likelihood, they couldn't. Why, you may ask? Because look at their mouths- for one, suckling would be VERY painful for the mother, and either way, they have no lower jaw. It would be physically impossible for them the drink off a mother's teats, thus outlawing the idea of the necessity of mammary glands as we know them.

I think this confirms the fact that elites do not have mammary glands Who says they have to be a reptile or mammal maby they are own class

It just seems to me that it would be more logical for them to not have breasts. My arguments: 1.) It is very unlikely a species that did not evolve on Earth could be defined as reptiles, mammals, or any other earthly classification. 2.) Elites do not have navels. I draw them, I checked. (At least males have something else in that general area insted.) 3.) I agree that they are warmblooded, but not all warmblooded animals are mammals, (don't forget birds.) 4.) I've never seen any other mammals, other than primates, with actual breasts. So even if they were some sort of mammal, it still might not be all that likely. There is still no way to know for sure. Since Sangheili are fiction they don't have to follow any logical rules of nature. Bungie might very well come along and say I'm wrong, and I would be fine with that.
