Dragon
From RationalWiki
Dragons are legendary creatures that resemble over-sized lizards, with occasional extra limbs,[1] can fly, and are thought to have other special powers such as the ability to breathe fire. Dragons do not exist[citation needed] except in mythology, legend, fantasy novels, and the imaginations of some cryptozoologists, but there exists a subculture which believes in them. There is also a subculture who thinks they are dragons or identifies with them in a similar manner as furry fandom.
The seemingly worldwide nature of dragon myths has led some people to engage in some truly bizarre speculation about the origins of humanity, or about "species memory" and such like.
