Species Of Dragon

Chapter 4

Here is included the species of dragons recorded by the Department of Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures, a list that might possibly help with identification. Common Welsh Green The Common Welsh Green [A.K.A Welsh Green] is native to Wales, and possesses a naturally shy personality causing it to prefer avoiding possible human confrontations, and commonly nests in high mountain regions, and in these areas convenient reservations have been formulated by witches and wizards for the dragon, allowing it to live safely and comfortably in its natural habitat. Its roar is found somewhat harmonious and can easily be distinguished by the unique oral sound of it, while it expresses its fire in narrow jets. Its diet consists of small mammals and sheep, and its eggs are a soft brown, typically with flecks of green. <a href="https://ibb.co/T4Kv0vZ"></a>

Pictured: Common Welsh Green Chinese Fireball The Chinese Fireball [A.K.A the Liondragon] is a naturally aggressive species of dragon, possessing smooth scarlet scales, prominent eyes, and a snub-shaped face. Though typically antagonistic the Chinese Fireball is surprisingly tolerant of its own kind, and occasionally may allow up to two other dragons to share and inhabit its territory.

Pictured: Chinese Fireball Antipodean Opaleye The Antipodean Opaleye originated in New Zealand and is popularly known due to the fact that it is regarded one of the most beautiful and attractive of all dragons. Its description, physically, consists of pearly white scales, and it possesses multi-colour eyes that have no pupils.

Pictured: Antipodean Opaleye Swedish Short Snout The Swedish Short Snout is, physically, silvery blue in colour and is known to breath an azure flame. Native to the mountains of Sweden the dragon's fire is extremely dangerous as it is so hot, and is capable of reducing bone and timber to ashes in less than several seconds. It is an agile flyer and rarely comes into contact with humans, due to its natural preference to avoid them. <a href="https://ibb.co/pfFvrRL"></a>

Pictured: Swedish Short Snout Ukranian Ironbelly Originating in Ukraine and said to be the largest dragon species worldwide, the Ukranian Ironbelly is slower in flight than other dragons yet equally dangerous, and not just because of its considerable size. It can produce fire up to 3,560 degrees Fahrenheit (1960 degrees Celsius). The dragon possesses the capacity to crush any dwelling on which it might possibly land, and so, therefore, are considered extremely perilous. <a href="https://imgbb.com/"></a> Romanian Longhorn Dark green in colour, native to Romania and with a habitat in the Carpathian Mountains, the Romanian Longhorn is a creature prized for its horns used in potion making and is naturally bulky in stature with emerald scales. Its horns, that protrude out, similar to a bull's, are typically gold and glittering, and due to this feature the Romanian Longhorn's species lessened considerably when the utilization of its horns [in potions] became popular. Thus a special, particularly large reservation was formulated specifically for the type of dragon. <a href="https://ibb.co/6Jy5fyK"></a>
