Here at Dragon Zoo we keep our eyes open for any cool news stories that catch our eye. Especially ones about dragons.
Well this particular news story has been branded around the internet over the last few days with headlines such as "UFO spotted",
"check out this incredible UFO video!"

Well we have another theory. With our eye for spotting dragons we think we know what this video is...has anyone ever heard of an Orb dragon? No? Well we think that this is the first recorded footage of an infant Orb dragon not following the rules!

Basically, Orb dragons, simliar to lightning dragons, only ever come out of hibernation during stormy weather. Huge thunder clouds and lightning flashing across the sky are good ways for an Orb dragon to disguise its activity. However, what if there is no storm or thick cloud cover? Basically the Orb dragon looks like it does in the video below. A small glowing blob.

The Orb dragon has the most incredible scales which emit a glowing light. This is essentially used as a defence mechanism to scare off and confuse other predators. When the Orb dragon is in danger or experiences strong emotion, the light it emits gets ever brighter so that you can't actually make out the dragon itself. Just a large glowing white light in the sky.

Orb dragons, like most other species of dragons, actually come in a variety of colours depending on the region that they are located. In the past we've had a few dragon sightings of blue, red and even green glowing lights in the skies that were all suspected to be Orb dragons caught in flight!

Check out the incredible video below and see what you think it could be. But our money is definitely on an Infant Orb Dragon having a bit of fun and flying around outside when the conditions aren't right to avoid detection! Here at Dragon Zoo we're just grateful that an adult Orb dragon wasn't woken from hibernation and caught trying to get the infant back under control. That would have been one heck of a clean up job!

 

Quick note: If you think you've spotted any dragons and have some cool pictures or videos to share, please contact us and we will report your dragon sighting on our news pages!
