| Are you talking about western dragons having large spleens? The eastern ones are serpentine, how did you come up with this conjecture? Are you rascist or something spleen squash dragon-hater!? | |||

Originally posted by Master HigginsIt's quite obvious that you're not, as that's not what spleens are for, and it's entirely possible to live without a spleen.Originally posted by Danielle The spleen decomposes old blood cells and removes waste from the blood stream. |

Thus, I ph4il you all. With a capital four. |

| Well... Unusually large body = unusually large spleen, doesn't it?
Are you sure that dragon spleens are purely analogous to human/other animal spleens? Perhaps they have extra functions. This could be a scientific breakthrough! |

| I said disproportionately large. As in large even for the large body.
I know that the organ that performs that function I mentioned is really big for dragons. And if you ask me, if it acts like a spleen it's a spleen. You see, dragons are big. They also fly. Big things need lots of food. Flying things need lots of food too. Actually, many flying things need to eat three times their body weight daily. That's a lot when you consider that they're still really big. Now, I think most of you are aware that dragons also breathe fire. So, not only do they need enough energy to fly and be big at the same time, they need enough energy to produce flame. When you get right down to it, a dragon is going to have to eat two or three flocks of sheep every few hours, just to stay alive. However, it seems there's at least one dragon available for every doofus in armor out to impress his girlfriend. Plus enough dragons to remain alive and provide breeding stock for the species. That's a lot of flocks of sheep. Obviously, dragons can't be eating that much. Indeed, most accounts only having them eating a few maiden sacrifices or the occasional would-be hero. Indeed, there's only one reasonable conclusion. Dragons are nuclear powered. Decomposing an adventurer on the atomic level would certainly provide the amount of energy we're talking about here. The dragon, however, is now subject to a great deal of radiation. And radiation causes cell damage. The dragon must have some means of dealing with this. Some animals keep a large supply of stem cells throughout their lifetimes, which are used to replace damaged cells. Dragons are obviously pretty big on this. Stem cells used in this manner decompose the cells they're replacing and the cellular remains are passed through the body to... The spleen. And dragons need to do this a lot. Thus, big spleens. |

| What do a Squash Monster know about dragons? I saw a documentary about dragons that showed that they create gases in their stomachs to be able to breathe fire.
It also showed that they might have existed on earth. Where do all tales about dragons come from. anyway? |

| Bacteria in dragon's stomachs produce hydrogen gas, which gets caught up in a special organ that I can't remember the name of, then they use it to help them to fly (they would weigh too much without it) and breath fire (by somehow igniting it). I saw it on Animal Planet (I think). | |||
