number 10: DRAGONS
Theories about what inspired dragon stories include lost crocodiles and dinosaur bones.
But we can't call these dragons real because humans have never met dinosaurs.
And crocodiles are very small.
And that's where Megalania comes in.
An ancient relative of the Komodo dragon who terrorized the Aborigines of Australia.
It grew to lengths of up to 8 meters and weighed up to 1.9 tons.
His poisonous saliva made his blood thinner, causing his victims to bleed to death.
Number 9) HOBBITS
Excavations of a limestone cave on the Indonesian island of Flores have uncover a 3-meter-high
skeleton, with a skull 1/3 the size of a normal human being, A Hobbit.
