You know what I find very awkward about dragon is that they have bat wings rather than feathered wings. Bat wings would be more associated to a mammalian creature. Unless the wings were somehow designed to look like that of a Pterasaurs rather than an Archeopteryx. And yet the Pterasaurs wasn't like a bat wing either, it was actually closer to the design of a bird's wing. So I think the people that first came up with the bat-winged dragon were absolutley clueless. Feathered dragons however would be hot.

No seriously. You can't make a claim like that without showing some support for it. Where did they get a dragon skeleton? Can you show me a reliable, factual link?

Carpethian Mountains in Romania.

I think you've been reading too much Harry Potter!

I think you heard about the dragon DNA being recovered was on the Sci-Fi channel. A movie staring Dean Kain that aired this holiday weekend. Wow did that movie suck, but I watched anyways because it was so bad it was funny...if you were drunk...which I was. But even I knew that the movie was fake. Sheeesh.

My deepest apologies. I hope you find your dragon.

They're called dragons because they're dragons. Why would anyone call them dragons if they weren't dragon? There are lots of big things that aren't called dragons out there, like horses.

There was also a fictional 'documentary' done a little while ago that featured 'scientists' who recovered a 'dragon body', and then did scientific tests on it. But, it was fictional.

Ahh, yes, I've seen that one, too. It's funny even when you're not drunk.

Again, Dragonologist, let's see a link to some factual reports on this dragon DNA/testing on Komodo dragons. Your word isn't going to be sufficient enough.

Edit: That wasn't the documentary on the Discovery channel, was it Nygdan? The one that speculated on the origins of dragons?

THats probably it. They had this mock dragon discovery, then actors playing scientists, who'd explain things like as if they were on a nature or science show, etc.

you reall should read Harry Potter.
They are good books.

I tryed reading one. Not really a fan...

Would it be possible to actually stay on topic here?

Please?

Or maybe no-one is contesting the actual topic anymore, since we've established the fact that Komodo Dragons are really just big lizards.

Any takers against the 'fact'?

Don't be silly masqua, no one is going to dispute that komodo dragon's are dragons, I mean, its right there, in the name!

I about had it with these people...

then go find a different message board. we have enough (...)damn dragonologists as it is.

this thread makes me want to throw up.

Chaps, chill out!

Not worth getting this upset over a few lizards.

BTW I agree with Nygdan as there are no dragons apart from KD's then they certainly are dragons
