Finally, a video about dragons. But I think the common whels green dragon is the only dragon you domesticated, because he is the most calm of all dragons and in Nederlands his name is like housedragon. And not to big, so i believe you can make him your pet and ally

[@engr.enciso]

having something as a pet is different from domestication you can have a pet tiger but it isn't a domesticated tiger

With the first one, I’m starting to wonder how the Aus/NZ ministry of magic deals with them. Assuming their scales resemble Australian Black Opals (it makes sense to me an opal-themed dragon living in Aus/NZ will bare resemblance to Aus/NZ opals) their shiny, colourful, fire breathing, and somewhat large in comparison to how tiny and delicate native flora and fauna is. Not to mention NZ has a lot of open farmland for sheep and cows, and I seriously doubt a few gumtrees here and there, and maybe an occasional hill or mountain regions is gonna be enough to hide those bad boys. Edit: also, for anyone not from NZ, farmers have been watching livestock a lot more closely due to a decline in numbers over the last few decades, so a dragon coming and taking like half of their farm isn’t gonna go unnoticed lol

[@shadowstar8619]

Honestly, when I first saw some of the dragon breeds, I was heavily reminded of certain dragon tribes in the Wings of Fire series. Welsh Greens reminded me of LeafWings, Chinese Fireballs of SkyWings, Hebridean Blacks of NightWings, and Swedish Shortsnouts of IceWings. There are some glaring differences between Harry Potter and Wings of Fire, though. In the latter series, dragons and humans are actually "rivals" for dominating their world, both being sentient and sapient creatures, though there is an obvious language barrier. There are no signs of humans having magic in WoF despite the existence of dragons that *do* have magic or otherwise supernatural abilities. And for having so many aspects related to dragons in the Harry Potter series, they don't have nearly as much of a spotlight as you'd expect; anything involving them is a side-plot at best.

[@starlight0313]

The “scavengers” or “reading monkeys” really don’t seem to be powerful rivals, the dragons seem to have an extreme advantage in the series in general

[@jamesschmitt2203]

What i was always curious about is how wandmakers get the heartstrings or the potionmakers/regular people the blond and organs of dragons Are they kept somewhere like cattle and killed when the have a decent sice or are they actively hunted?

[@Andidejager.]

I'm curious about what is canon when it comes to the body plan of dragons in the Harry potter universe. In the films and Hogwarts mystery they are wyverns but in the illustrations, that look like they come from an official book, they have 4 legs and 2 wings.

[@althor1247]

Norbert is actually Norbetta, as revealed in the goblet of fire.

[@Nathreim1]

I imagine there more breeds of dragons than just these. The UK has two breeds but North America, India and Africa have none? I think Rowling needs to put a bit more on the list.

[@Anton_the_Vampire]

I like the Horntail myself. I'm curious though, JKR goes to great lengths to establish that snakes have a speakable language - parseltongue, but I wonder if the same is true of Dragons? Surely they must also have a language that wizards could learn?

[@ianswinford5570]

I have a Harry Potter OC that can talk to dragons.

[@someoneontheinternet9617]

Like Valyrian in House of the Dragon/Game of Thrones? I think it would be interesting, solely for the potential of dragon riding. Imagine flying into a possible 3rd Wizarding War with a Chinese Fireball or with a Hungarian Horntail??? How cool would that be?

[@arrowghost]

I live in Asia, I'm not highly impressed when the Chinese Fireball isn't a true Chinese dragon as that looks more like a western dragon.

[@pokyzard]

I like to imagine the Chinese fireball to look more like the Chinese dragons, since it can also be called the Lionhead, and Chinese dragons have those manes around their heads.

[@jinpachibobochan3532]

Well, the dragons in the film are made 'realistic' and not as ridiculous as the creatures in the DnD series or so. The Chinese dragon, while cool, is too crazy to create a believable creature. It would be impossible to subdue such a creature. The dragons in the Harry Potter universe are more like overpowered dinosaurs, strong, but not overly so.

[@kayleighbrown459]

It's mostly a movie adaptation

[@l-l-l-l-l-l-l]

The fact that Chinese dragon eyes look like Chinese people kinda messed up

[@ThatLilLady]

I'd like to think they're a mixed breed that managed to take off cuz we know chinese dragons shoot water, not fire.

[@WilliamDearthwd]

3:15 Cool artwork of the Ilfracombe Incident. That was a Welsh Green dragon going for a beach of Muggle sunbathers and the Magical Correctional Squad had to clean up the mess and modify the memories of the witnesses.

I like the Ukrainian Iron Belly. Because of the escape from Gringotts. Whoever did that segment did a great job! My heart was breaking for that dragon. 😢. I was so relieved when it broke free. I just wish someone was able to take those chains off of it.

[@JoshuaGanoTyraxLightning]

Dragons have always been my fav Fantasy Creature. With that said, the Harry Potter Version have always seemed more like extra large Wyverns than actual Dragons. (I know some Realms evolve Dragons that make do with 2 Legs just fine & some evolve in a way to where they find evolutionarily tactical use for Wings with ability to cling to Hill/Mountain Sides, but i'm most accustomed to the more normal traditional 4-Legged variety.) As for my fav Breed, haven't got to interact with them enough to be able to make a call on that as of the time of this Comment, sadly. I can say however the Hungarian Horntail looks the most awesome & warriorish to me. :D

[@kylebicker7649]

OK, the Welsh Green being Domesticated and it being not so big should mean it's an unfair advantage for Fleur, i would've had the 4th dragon be a Hebridean Balck instead to make it more fair

If you wanted to get nerdy, the “dragons” in the Harry Potter films are wyverns, a sub species of dragons, as dragons have 4 legs with wings on their backs

However dragons can also be two legged and two winged if there legs function as read legs and they use their wings to move around.A Steven has two legs and two wings but only uses its legs when moving around

dragons in movies and TV shows so rarely have all six limbs. in harry potter, hobbit, game of thrones and even witcher, they all have just wings and one pair of legs. maybe the second pair would cost too much to animate, or calling wyvern a dragon is just as acceptable as calling a forktail a dragon.

If dragons are so prevalent how does the ministry of magic keep the knowledge of dragons a secret from muggles?

[@nexxo_006]

Here on Iceland we have something that we calked: An icelandic Snowdrake

[@nexxo_006]

Bred originally in Iceland, the Icelandic Snowdrake is known for its love of sheep, often tending them and herding them, even making small fires when caught in snow too heavy even for the Icelandic sheep. Many Snowdrakes are first fed on sheep’s milk by their wixes, who use the feeding to accustom the pygmy dragons to the sheep, so they do not seek to hunt them., Once accustomed to creatures - through scent most usually, though infants do well when fed the milk of the creature - they can be trained with the creature(s) they are accustomed to in ways much more difficult with other pygmy dragon breeds. While they can breathe fire they also possess a freezing venom not dissimilar to that of the Arctic Ice Dragon, and have many physical traits in common with the Ice Dragon, being icily pale and almost crystalline in some respects, with pale blue or grey eyes, and claws of razor sharpness. However it is the size of the creatures (much smaller than the Arctic Ice Dragon) and claw colour that they are distinct, having ivory claws on their paws, and dark grey, almost black claws on their wings.
