Are Or Were Dragons Real?

Answer Question

4 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Well, not in the fairy tale way, the big flapping flying things which breathe fire, but I can imagine how they might have gotten in to our culture.  

    If we look at the elements of a dragon:

    flying lizard
    large scaly lizard
    fire breathing

    There were many prehistoric dinosaurs that flew, and since the chicken is a descendant of the dinosaur, I can imagine a chicken like creature that was scaled rather than feathery.

    Scaly lizards, Komodo dragon, dinosaur? We know that these existed and still do, crocodiles?

    Fire breathing - it's possible that gas escaping from the stomach of a lizard could be flammable, the chimaera in Turkey is naturally occurring methane that catches fire when it comes out of the ground.  It's not such a stretch to think that it could happen from the belly of a beast.  Also, it's possible that the lizard spat poison like a snake (or some dinosaurs) and that this could be considered a type of 'fire'.

    Dragons aren't real now, but perhaps in a way, there were.

      Yes I think they are real. I have a book about dragons with riddles and spells you can tell to dragons that make them do stuff. I put an amethyst outside and then I used one that summons dragons and went inside. While inside I heard many screaming birds. I believe that a dragon killed and ate them. I went back outside later and found the amethyst was gone. I think the dragon took it for his or her hord.

        No. When people first found dinosaur bones they couldn't figure out what they were so they made up fanciful tales about them and what they may have looked like just like they did with their gods. We know much more now ;)

        Haha... You're talking about the Dragons book that has the different runes and stuff in it. It's been a while since I've looked through that. You do know it's just a kid book right? Other than the runes, not much of it is true. Marsupial draco? >.< HAHA HA.... The amethyst probably got taken by a squirrel that thought it was a shiny nut. And the bird probably were courting or waking up. Nothing special about that.
        But I do agree with Epictetus, they probably were real in a scaly lizard that spits at things way.
