dragon is a mythical animal. dragon’s appearance is described as having the trunk of a snake, the scales of a carp, the tail of a whale, the antlers of a stag, the face of a camel, the talons of eagles, the ears of a bull, the feet of a tiger, and the eyes of a lobster. bla bla blah… but hey, i found a funny article about dragon’s toes on the wiki:

The Chinese dragons have five toes on each foot, Indonesian or Korean dragons have four, and the Japanese dragons have three. To explain this phenomenon, Chinese legend states that all Imperial dragons originated in China, and the further away from China a dragon went the fewer toes it had. Dragons only exist in China, Korea, Indonesia, and Japan because if they traveled further they would have no toes to continue.

hehehehhh… dragons travel on foot, eh? i thought dragons are capable of taking flight :mrgreen:
