Description
A common sight in the remote, rocky hills of Greece and its associated isles, the small Grecian Rock Wyrm appears (like its cousins the lyndwyrmr of central and eastern Europe) to be a late surviving theropod--and as such not a true dragon. Moreover, legend's of its lust fro treasure are wholly fictional, and likely arose from its somewhat dragonish appearance (which also gave rise to it's native name of drakon.) The Wyrm is an avid hunter of small prey, although it has been known to take the occasional pig, goat, or shepherd. However, it is a retiring animal, and avoids humans when possible. But with the growing population of Greece, conflict is becoming more common--and deadlier.--Trismagestus

They look like the raptor's of the dragon world even if there not a real true dragon.

I just had an insane idea: these guys could be pachycephalosaurs! I mean, its generally agreed they were omnivores anyway, so...

That's interesting.Certainly that would explain the congenital horns, although the lanky build is a bit un-pachycephalosaurian. It's a cool idea, though. Did you see the Primeval episode with the Dracorex?

Or, come to think of it, a South American one. Time and space, yes?

I know, and its awesome. I thought the only Primeval I'd see would be the upcoming american stuff, but fortunately the british series will continue as well
