Notice that I wrote "no dragon skeletons have been found." With that, I mean
no skeletons that are obviously dragons -- if they _did_ evolve from
dinosaurs (as the Dr. seems to think) skeletons from certain dinosaurs are
the fossil record of early dragons. Which ones I don't know, as I'm not an
expert on these matters. Our best bet would be to find a dino skeleton that
looks like either an eastern or a western dragon, and name that as one of
the possible ancestors -- like I did with the mosasaur. I got the idea for
this article when I watched a documentary about ancient sea creatures on
Discovery...
And I'm still working on integrating six-limbed creatures into the article...
