Scientists confirm a new species of dragon!

Science can make me laugh.
Take this story, for example.
Scientists have confirmed a type of fruit eating lizard as a new species.
Of course, it is not really new, but new to scientists. People living in the Philippines have been hunting this creature for its flesh already. Hard to call something that has been dinner for probably thousands of years a new species, but the science types do anyway.
They also call the lizard the size of a dragon. But it is only six feet long and weighs 22 pounds.

THAT IS NOT DRAGON SIZED!

Dragons are supposed to be huge. Dozens of feet tall, with tails equal to the length of their body. Forty feet or more of wingspan is typical for a fearsome dragon. The fact that the Catholic Church has a Saint named George that killed a dragon would indicate that killing a dragon is a big deal. Killing a 22 pound fruit eating lizard may put food on the table but fails to impress compared to killing a fire breathing (mythical) creature.
Anyway, scientists need to get their facts straight.
This is serious.
Dragons are big.
And if a group of people regularly hunt a creature as a food source it probably is not a new species.
