I don't think dragons would have umbilical cords but hey, what do I know about mythical creatures.

But everyone who sees it immediately asks, 'Is it real?Big deal. People say the same thing when they see the effects done at the haunted house I work at every Halloween.
To: BibChr
Cool. Looks similar to a dragon in my collection. Someone had too much time on his hands.

"The dragon is flawless, from the tiny teeth to the umbilical cord.The umbilical cord would seem to suggest live birth of dragons, wouldn't it? How many reptiles have umbilical cords? (and I thought dragons were egg laying creatures). For that matter, although they look like it, are dragons reptiles?

Hey, embryonic chicks have umbilical cords; no reason a fetal dragon shouldn't.

This is as fake as the "15 meter snake" story that was circulating a few weeks ago.

This is obviously a fake. Baby dragons dont have umbilical cords, dragons are oviparous.

See #16. Just because some animals that are born live have umbilical cords doesn't mean that all animals with umbilical cords must be born live.
