Good point FtB, however I do not think it strictly applies to 'animals' like Huan who had they stayed in Valinor, would have been Immortal, and perhaps had he not had a special doom, would still have been so.

But I think you sre correct in postulationg a basic entropic force in M-E that wears everything down to a greater or lesser extent after a period of early growth.

The Dunedain, Elves, The Ents etc, either inidvidually or collectively they suffer the effects of living in a fallen and 'marred' world.
