  • There are tiny Avatar-like gliding dragons in Asia

    There is an amazing species of gliding lizard which looks like a miniature dragon. They breed in the Philippines, Malaysia and Indonesia and look like mini versions of flying Toruks from Avatar – if you have seen the film.

    The species is called Draco Volans.
