Peruvian Vipertooth
So, now we’ve got a South American dragon. Still missing North America, Africa, Antarctica....
This is a particularly small and fast dragon with venomous fangs. It’s mostly brown, with black markings. Like most dragons, it eats larger land mammals but, once again, it loves to heat humans. So much so that experts have occasionally been called in to reduce their numbers.
It begs the question: does anything eat dragons? Exactly what keeps dragon populations in check? In fact, the same goes for any magical creature. What is it that stops these creatures from expanding in numbers and taking over everything in the areas where they live?
