Perhaps the most fearsome and powerful beast to inhabit the Jungle World of Eldrador is the jungle dragon itself. While it prefers to soar high above its lush green environment, it will swoop down on any intruder it sees, attacking with tooth, claw, and tail!
Schleich’s 2024 Eldrador jungle dragon measures about 11 cm high at the head and 17 cm long, but would be considerably longer were it not for the fact that its tail is curled to the left with the tip facing toward.
They say the phoenix is a symbol of rebirth, of reincarnation, revival, rejuvenation, revitalization, renewal, resurrection; the poetic idea of everlasting life, strength over destiny, power over fate, over the inevitable. the mythical phoenix rises from the ashes, but only after it dies. It cannot live again without dying.
For a great many people, including myself, the coolest monsters of all will always be dragons. Indeed, when I was four years old, my mother made me a terrific dragon costume for Halloween using Bristol board to craft a headpiece and green egg carton bottoms (this was back in the days when they were made of styrofoam) tied together with string for a tail.

One of the most unusual and frightening members of the dromaeosaur family, Skiaraptor kakos (“evil shadow raptor”) was first discovered in the African nation of Zamunda by the distinguished scholar Professor Cuthbert Calculus. Subsequent remains have turned up in Birani, Equatorial Kundu, Kijuju, and Wadiya, indicating that the species ranged throughout the continent during the Middle Cretaceous.
