The organization may very well be real, at least in the sense that the organization exists and has members. As to whether dragons are real, the answer is no. If it were true that dragon bones had been found, it would be widely known in the scientific community. In fact, it would be the discovery of the millennium.

Further, I challenge anyone to contact me and prove that dragons exist or have ever existed as real animals. I will personally give $10,000 to anyone who can prove to me that dragons are real.

Next answer:

I know this organization is very real, as I am a member. As for Dragons, we have collected proof of them being real such as bones.

Next answer:

Next answer:
