Species Notes

"Feral" is not so much a dragon breed but a state of being that transcends all breeds. The term refers to a dragon who roams free, and refuses a handler. Aviators live in fear that a dragon egg they are assigned to will go feral (as often happened with Longwings when they were presented with male handlers). However, some dragons are simply born into the wild and know no other state of being, as was the case with the group of mountain dragons Temeraire's crew encountered on the trip from China to Turkey.

That group presented an interesting look at how dragons behave without humans around to influence them. It is worthwhile to note that dragons do have their own natural language called Durzagh which is only spoken in "in the Pamirs, and the Karakoram" (BPW, 54). They also organize themselves into tribes with leaders and other positions of importance.

They have their own tradition of storytelling, which involves a complicated pantomime.
