Why do people think that dragons exist and please give good reasons why?

Answer 1

Well, the theory dragons currently exist has no proof or evidence or anything to back it up whatsoever.

It's just some high school nerds that have watched a couple too many Lord of the Rings movies.

However, people think dragons might have USED TO exist, is mostly based on past climates and terrain.

They found terrain that would have been in the past suitable for the adaption of the dragons or a creature like dragons. They found some of the areas had climate that is possible for it too.

I can't remember, but I may have heard about something that about finding bones that could have fit a creature like a dragon.

And the ancient dinosaur a teradactyl isn't far from one. The teradactyl just does not have the ability to breath fire, which is undoubtefully the most far fetched feature of a dragon.

Fire would reguarly burn the inside of their throat and mouth. Adaptations to breath fire would have to be tremendous.

Scientists also discovered that in order for a dragon to breath fire, they would be very limited in how much and how long. And it would only be able to travel 5-7 feet from their mouth or something like that.

Answer 2

Some people believe in the existence of dragons due to cultural stories and legends that have been passed down over generations. Additionally, some fossils and archaeological findings may resemble creatures reminiscent of dragons, fueling speculation about their possible past existence. Lastly, the enduring popularity of dragons in literature, film, and art can contribute to a belief in their existence as a fantastical and intriguing creature.
