OTHER INFORMATION |
This is a very large piece and comes in a huge wooden crate |
The Fire Dragon,
the most well documented and 'classical' of all our speci. This is the creature
of legend. Bones have been found all over the world, and it is thought that the
Ignuis was the absolute Apex predator, with nothing that hunted it. Although
legend disproves this with many chivilrous tales, of course they are only
legends.
Therefore the
Fire Dragon's diet would have been extremely diverse, crystals and precious
stones are often
found in the stomach of the fossil, and it is supposed these
were there as a grinding aid to digestion! Largest bone found would have been
from a creature in excess of 35 meters. FOSSIL
