  1. Why dragons are extinct It is a well-known fact that, up until a few hundred years ago, dragons roamed England terrorising villages with their fiery breath and capturing maidens. So why are they now extinct? Experts think that the main reason is the rise and rise of football. Because so many England fans started wearing the colours of St George, the dragons fled to remote moorlands. Unfortunately, the very cold weather of the moorlands meant that the dragons’ favourite green foods (gooseberries, cabbage and spinach) refused to grow. These plants were not only vital for the dragons’ health but also for their colour which provided camouflage in the woods. Slowly, the green dragons turned purple, caused by eating too much heather. It is this colour-change that led to their final extinction. Once the heather had died away in the autumn, the dragons could no longer hide because their purple scales made them easily visible. This enabled local bounty hunters to hunt and destroy them. So that is why the only dragons you see in England today are in pictures, books or films.
