Publisher's Description of Crystal Cavern Dragon

It's possible that the Crystal Cave Dragon was one of Earth's very first dragon species. Crystal Cave Dragons are born in massive geodes deep under the planet's crust, in places where magma flows and the heat and pressure are unimaginable. Yet inside these geodes are riches untold, massive crystals formed from cooling materials dating back billions of years. As Earth's crust shifts and shakes, features under the surface are moved and crushed. It's thought that this pressure could break open a geode, freeing the Crystal Dragon inside to make its way to the surface through a volcano or another fissure.

The Crystal Cave Dragon just laughed. Fire couldn't scare it, and neither could another dragon, no matter how large it was or how many horns it had. The Crystal Cave Dragon had found a perfect lair, a cool cave at the foot of a snow-covered mountain. Unfortunately, the lair had been inhabited by an angry Cave Dragon that didn't want to share its home. The beast tried breathing fire first, perhaps thinking the Crystal Cave Dragon's light color indicated weakness. However, haven been born among magma, dragon fire felt downright cool. Then the Cave Dragon resorted to charging, its big horns lowered. The Crystal Cave dragon almost felt bad when the horns shattered against its diamond-hard belly. It had been refined by the greatest heat and pressure imaginable deep inside the Earth. No mere Cave Dragon could stand against it. Forlorn, the disgraced Cave Dragon slouched away, and the Crystal Cave Dragon proudly settled into its new home.

Category Description for Safari Dragons Collection

If you've seen many pictures of dragons, you probably know that everyone's perception is a little different. I think they are big reptiles that have 4 legs, claws, teeth, 2 wings, reptilian eyes, a long tail and spikes on their backs. Some dragons look quite different, though; there are dragons that look like roosters (cockatrices), ones that have human faces, ones that are a mixture of several different animals, and ones that leave you with a confused "What is THAT!?" Safari's version of Chinese dragons are FANTASTIC. The purple one is very, very bright, the end of its tail looks like icy fire, and it's fit to be in any emperor's palace. The blue dragon is a more natural looking one, an able creature and a wise teacher. Also check out the Dragon Toobs for more cool-looking little dragons. Any dragon lover would like to have a few of these creatures to keep them company. Dragons below measure 7" long and 4" high. ~ Janine
