Very few dragons are allowed to remain "full-time" on the earth, and most that do have adjusted to a watering environment, where they are disidentified as "Sea Serpents", "Lake Monsters" and "Dinosaurs", such as the Congo dragon sightings.. Though they are flesh and blood creatures, most dragons reside in another plane/dimension generally referred to by most theologies as "Heaven".
Other than in the water, or in the air on the darkest of nights, you will usually find dragons on seldom used, paved roads in forested or mountainous areas, so their claw prints will not be seen.
Nor will you find their dung. Even in ancient times, dragons were always required to defecate in large bodies of water where it will quickly disintigrate, or when this is not possible, as in a desert, to burn the dung to prevent its discovery. And becasue none have died, this is why no physical proof of their existence will ever be found. This is important, becasue the appearance of supernatural entities in our world would casue mankind to establish belief systems based on fear, rather than faith.
Great, dragging religion back into it. -ahem-
Most belief *is* through fear. Tell a toddler the story of the boogeyman and most of 'em with be scared. Tell them a spider bite could kill you and they'll steer clear.
And how might you explain this to someone who does'nt believe in Seraphim/God/Heaven ectr?
Real dragons are what they are, and we can learn the most about them by researching the ancient accounts when dragons were commonly seen.
No one can change the fact that they are the Seraphim of the Bible, even though the Catholic Church tried to do this in the Middle Ages. Dragons are a common thread in the belief systems of most of the human race, and there is a reason for this.
These ancient accounts are of far more worth in determining the true nature of dragons that all the ridiculous D&D type game books and novels whose writers simply made up the material they contain.
The billions and billions of people, of the three great, Bible-based religions must believe in dragons by default -- for they are an inescapable part of these theologies, despite the coverup to take them out, and demonize them.
