4.25
畜具四者。《正法念經》云:「化生金翅鳥,能食四生龍,乃至濕生也。」然禽獸雖殊,皆畜生道攝,餘獸皆胎,餘鳥皆卵也。
Regarding "animals possessing all four": the Saddharmasmṛtyupasthāna Sūtra says: "Transformationally born garuḍas are able to eat the four kinds of born nāgas, up to moisture-born." However, although birds and beasts are distinct, all are subsumed under the animal destiny; the remaining beasts are all womb-born, and the remaining birds are all egg-born.
