Swamp Dragon

Description

It's a female (males have small red spots on their belly, legs, back and tail)
These dragons live in warm swampy areas. They have long muzzles and long sharp teeth because they eat fish and insects. They prefer to live in holes near the marshes or other places with ditch-water. Sometimes (but not often) they settle in small caves.
They are green-brown and 1 meter long creatures, that prefer to live in quiet places far away from people. Their bodies are covered with growths to look like swamp slime as it helps to be inconspicuous while hunting. They also don’t know how to protect themselves and their youngs, so disguise is a good way to be safe.
They usually have 5-15 eggs (not so many), because their offspring live with parents for several months. Adults transfer offspring in their mouths (like crocodiles) after their hatching, and young dragons live on their territory for 2-5 months (if the area is very dangerous they live together longer)
