What do you know about dragons?

Dragons are mythical animals. Stories of dragons possibly were inspired by ancient discoveries of dinosaur fossils; however, the people didn't know how to interpret the fossils and thus thought that the animal was a dragon. European and Chinese dragons are fairly different. European dragons have larger, wings than Chinese dragons. Also, generally, European dragons have a more 'dinosaur-like head,' whereas Chinese dragons appear to have a sort of 'mustache.' Both kinds usually have four legs, and can fly. European dragons usually are said to be able to blow fire. Chinese dragons are very long and narrow (almost like a snake), whereas European dragons have a body plan more similar to that of the extinct dinosaurs. In European legends, dragons usually represent evil, whereas Chinese dragons have always been revered as divine and wise creatures.
