Q: Were dinosaurs dragons?

A: There are many ancient descriptions and images of dragons. Interestingly, many of these descriptions and images are similar to drawings and depictions of how scientists believe dinosaurs would have looked. It makes sense: dragon legends have a basis in reality—that people saw animals they called "dragons."
God's Word clearly teaches that all the land animals (which included what we call dinosaurs), along with Adam and Eve, were made on the sixth day of creation. Dinosaurs and humans lived together.
Read the whole article by Ken Ham to see how ancient accounts of dragons are similar to ancient flood legends—both of which illustrate the truth of God's Word.
