I think there is way too much of these so called "mythological" creatures throughout culture, or every culture as a matter of fact, through thousands of years, to not be real at least in part

thoughts?

I believe there could have been a winged serpent that looked similar or even exactly like a dragon sometime in the past, but I DO NOT believe they could blow fire. :?

well they had to existed in my opinion. And they must have lived along side humans, considering there are so many depictions of them throught our history. For example, dont u think its a bit odd that the chinese zodiac consists of 12 animals, all of them real but one?

I don't doubt there were animals that had similar qualities to dragons, but dragons themselves never existed. No animal is going to breath fire. And something the average size of a dragon is depicted to be isn't going to be flying.

Considering their body weight, the couldn't fly in high altitudes like in the movies....so what they did is, they inhaled deeply turning the oxygen into helium (i think i can't remember) and where able to glide for short moments.

When breathing fire, they combined the Oxygen with the propane in their second stomach. (if im wrong please correct me, i saw that documentary last year)

well like I said before, I think that all the dinosaur skeletons we find are perfect evidence that giant reptiles existed. And be honest, if you saw a 30 foot lizard running near your house, wouldnt you describe it as a dragon?

it is most likely that a long time ago the snakes and lizards we know today could have been great beasts tha could have had wings , but they could have had to adapt for some reason slowly changing them into our lizards and snakes.

I think they did. What people of old called dragons I think were really just some species of dinosaurs that managed to survive extinction, but ended up dying out anyways due to very few of them being left.

Considering it took several million years after the extinction of the dinosaurs that primates even evolved...

I don't think so. I think maybe certain dinosaur skeletons may have in the past been misconstrued as flying lizards, and thus dragons were 'born'

Could of but i doubt they breathed fire or were immune to magic. Probably a large Lizard of sort, that may have been over emphasized as history went on.

do dinosaurs count?

i think i saw something about dragons on the discovery channel. according to the show, most cultures have stories about dragons because its a combination of psychological terrors that exist in humans today because a long time ago when humans were in an earlier phase of evolution we had to watch out for various predators: large birds, large cats, and large reptiles

combine those three together in a nightmare and you've got a dragon

I think there was probably something that could have been similar to a dragon that stories have twisted into something bigger and such. Its hard to say they didnt exist when cultures that had been seperated for thousands of years both have very similar depictions of dragons.
