These are our Chinese Water Dragons:

Fun Facts!

  • Males can grow up to 3 feet in length
  • Females can grow up to 2 feet
  • The tail is nearly two-thirds of the entire body length and can be used as a weapon (a whip) if the dragon feels threatened. But don't worry our Dragons are safe!
  • They can be found living in India, China, and all over Southeastern Asia
  • And of course in our office in Novato, California!
  • They can hold their breath for almost 30 minutes! Please don't try that at home :)
  • They live in trees (arboreal) and love freshwater lakes and streams.
