Something was out there, that is for sure. Too many places have stories about what was called a dragon. Might have just been a Rex, on a very cold day, but we will never find out what they were actually talking about....unfortunately.
I collect statues of the Chinese dragons :)

The truth is...
Throughout the centuries, ancient people would occasionally stumble across fossils of pteradactyls...those flying dinosaurs of old...so...yeah...
I guess you could say they were kind of "dragon-like" in appearance, and so the legends grew...
But one thing is for certain...
No creature on the face of the Earth has ever been able to "breathe out fire" like a living flamethrower...
THAT detail is ALL fiction...

I think something along the lines of a Dragon was real, but it would seem that they have all died off already.

Actually, there is no evidence at all.
But : Chinese culture is the oldest culture in the world, and they worshiped or worship dragons, therefore they might have existed.
Although there is no evidence (if there is tell me what) , I think it's more possible than impossible.

I think that they were bigger versions of monitor lizards, and komodo dragons, and those asian alligators. I think some things about them are real, and some things were from folk tales. It would be cool if we could find hardcore proof.

Dragons are what people came up with centuries ago when they came upon dinosaur fossils. In Asia, at least.

I think they might be pockets of unkarmaed energy. A storm is a "dragon" force.
