In the UK telegraph they have a story about a
pickled “dragon” found in a garage in Oxfordshire. This is widely believed to be an old hoax.
Ok I don’t know about you but this is so cool! Yes of course it is a hoax but what a cool hoax
You can read the original article, but I found a better link with pictures.
From the article people believe that this hoax was created by the Germans in the 19th century to “show up” their Brittish rivals. They say that the Germans may have sent it to the Brits hoping they would fool them.
Heaven forbid I should point out the obvious.
I was always of the opinion that it was generally accepted that dragons came from eggs. If that is the case, why would this one have an umbilical cord?
hehe Dani, that sounds right!
And hey, I find that pic disturbing, sort of gross if I may say so :Ã
Dani all egg forming embryos,chics,ect. have umbilical cords they get nutrients from their sac via cord.
Yes, pretty sure that this is a hoax, however there is a reason that the germans likely chose a dragon. I mean every major culture across the world has stories about them, and they all look similar across the world but we have yet to find one. Facinating mystery really, I mean think about it even as dragons start to work their way into myth they still captivate our minds! I beleive that no matter what happens for always and forever there are some things so incredible that they stick with us. And dragons is one of those things, so it is only natural that with a fleeting hope in their mind anyone who sees this dragon is going to ask ‘Is it real?’.
