The similarities between dinosaurs and dragons

‘Dinosaurs were strong and ferocious, but they didn’t have magical powers. Most dragons were winged creatures that could fly. They possessed magical powers, and even the non-winged dragons could still fly thanks to their mythical superpowers.  

Dinosaurs, if they existed today, could be challenging to train. However, ancient literature depicts the many possibilities through which people could tame dragons.  

Dinosaurs were all reptilian-like creatures. However, some dragons were a mixture of different animals, including lions, hawks, giant snakes, and they had hare-like eyes.’ (Source) 

That’s it! Yeti is still very confused. Penny sees the confused look on his face so he tells Yeti that they will look for his dragon friends and maybe they can explain the differences. A little while later Yeti sees some dragons up ahead. 

“There they are!” says Penny. “Now let’s talk to them to see if they can clear these differences for you. Hi guys, this is my new friend Yeti.” 

“Yeti these are some of my dinosaur friends,” Penny says. “From left to right, this is Cera and her baby dinosaur who just broke out of the egg, Lex, Nimbus and Ace. Hey guys, Yeti needs some help so I hope that one of you can explain to him the differences between dinosaurs and dragons.”

 

“Hi Yeti, it’s nice to meet you,” says Cera. “Sure, I can try to explain the similarities between us.” 

‘The Main Similarities between Dinosaurs and Dragons

● Dragons and dinosaurs were all reptilian creatures with giant scales.

● Both dragons and dinosaurs were gigantic theropods with towering features and massive tails.

● Dragons and dinosaurs don’t exist today. You won’t get to meet a living dragon or dinosaur.

● Some dragons walked on four legs and couldn’t fly. The same applies to some species of dinosaurs.

● Some dinosaurs were herbivores and docile creatures, while some were hunters and aggressive beasts. Similarly, some dragons were peaceful creatures that didn’t prey on humans or their livestock. However, some dragons were known to eat livestock, children, and entire populations.’ (Source) 

Finally, Yeti is getting a better idea of the differences. He thanks Cera for explaining it to him.
