Humans always live near water, its just logical that towns being lost would be a regular occurrence. In the case of dragons, I'd be willing to bet it had a lot to do with Chinese immigrants.

One sort of science nerd thing about breathing fire. As a method of cooking, using a liquid fuel would require an extreme amount of it to do any significant heating, even extreme heat like described here. Water is amazingly resiliant to heating. Also, for a creature big enough to be their prey, it would be necessary to butcher it in order to cook the meat without totally immolating it and transforming a lot of the caloric content into gas. I think it is indeed not impossible by the miracles of nature for an animal to develop the ability to breath fire. Nature does frankly more ridiculous things than that all the time. It's merely that fire is not a calorically reasonable adaptation to ever be useful.

OMGOODNESS...I love the Green Dragonette 💗 so cute.

Okay, okay, let's give this a try, my guy.

It seems silly to say this, but every time I see a feathered dinosaur I am reminded of artistic representations of dragons in the Middle Ages. A simple search, very simplistic, even on Google Image, to make comparisons. However, in place of ears and horns, manes, bristles, and crests may be used (certain species of owls, for example). Who knows, it might be a real creature that inspired the legends; Evolution is multilinear, dinosaurs gave rise to birds; and, perhaps, some surviving dinosaur species must have stayed side by side for some time.

I don't know if there is a podcast for these type of things or if the creator themselves has a podcast for these types of topics like biology, but I'd like to see a podcast be made and I bet others would as well, will keep in touch if I find a podcast on it

This is just awesome 🙏 Yes there are Dragons across world cultures and histories. Maybe if there was a stage between Dinosauria and birds like the raptors which may have morphed into larger varieties and whom may 'not' have breathed fire can still be considered to fit the description of dragons. So if the accounts are true, these raptor creatures existed in the early C.Es and the B.C.Es ?? That's an amazing find actually with all the fossils lying around and being discovered in different formations around the world. Remember studying about a raptor that could morph it's feathery limbs into wings to glide and fly a distance and then return to normal form ! These creatures may have been there (some species) during time of early humans. That explains a lot. Thank you.

Sea serpents are basically mosasaurus

When "cooking" their food, do they use purely their own pyrogenesis, or do they create some kind of bonfire and use their pyrogenesis to ignite that which cooks their food? Because the former would be extremely calorically wasteful, but the latter would require a significant amount of intelligence and dedicated preparation for almost any animal to pull off.

As a Dungeons and Dragons fan, it just feels wrong for a sea serpent to get the title of Tiamat. Tiamat, in D&D, is the five headed draconic god of Chromatic dragons, (ie; red, blue, green, black and white) trapped in the Nine Hells. Tiamat has a Wyvern's tail, which ends in a vicious spike that is full of poison strong enough to rot flesh away in seconds. Each of her five heads breaths a different Element. Fire, Ice, Lightning, Poison gas, and Acid. She eats any of her children she doesn't like, and makes more children with any of them she does like, so yikes. Seeing that name on a particularly grouchy sea serpent is like naming a pug breed after Cerberus

Well Tiamat in D&D get's her name from a Babylonian creation goddess associated with water, who is also often depicted as a Dragon. So in that regards, it makes sense to have name from irl mythology/religion for this particular dragon.

@@CyberCowboy-gv2jg I understand that. I was saying that, for me, the first thing brought to mind by 'Tiamat' is the evil god of chromatics, which is way off the mark compared to what was shown, lol

Wait, y was the next episode not the continuation of this?

I love dragons! (Unpopular opinion) dragons are just early mans depiction of dinosaurs

I, as a Wyvern see this video as an absolute win

My question is would an acid spitter drake b possible in this au?

i can only think the destructive demon that forced a whole animal branch to become flamethrowers only to have a way to defend themselves from it

Wait, hold up. *THIS* is how I find out turtles breath through their butt?

Who knows, they are probably on an distant planet somewhere. Plus the old testament is really about a dragon if you think about it. Burning down towns, flying fiery serpents and even the description of god just screams dragon story to me.

I watched ONE video and heard him say “you matter.” Now I’m binging just to hear it over and over 😭
