There is a Chinese story of a cosmic egg. At the beginning of time all was chaos, and this chaos was shaped like a hen's egg. Inside the egg were Yin and Yan, ..........   One day the warring entities inside the egg rent it apart. the heavier elements sank, to form the earth, and the lighter ones floated, to form the sky. And betweenthe earth and the sky was P'an-ku, the first being.......There is a dragon mentioned in the story too.   Probably not the story you are looging for but a parallel one from another culture.

In Chinese mythology there are five types of dragon:-\n\n   1. Those guarding the gods and emperors\n   2. Those controlling the wind and rain\n   3. Earthly dragons which deepened the rivers and seas\n   4. Guardians of hidden treasure\n   5. The first dragon\n\nThe First dragon appeared to the mythical emperor Fu-hsi, and filled the hole in the sky made by the monster Kung Kung. Its waking, sleeping and breathing determined day and night. Season and weather.\n\nThere are many differences between the classical dragon and the Chinese dragon, these include the ability to fly even without wings, shape-shifting abilities, and of course the general benevolent behaviour to the populace.\n\nThe Chinese dragon is made up of nine entities. The head of camel, the eyes of a demon, the ears of a cow, the horns of a stag, the neck of a snake, it's belly a clam's, it's claws that of an eagle, while the soles of his feet are that of a tiger, and the 117 scales that cover it's body are that of a carp.\n\nThe Chinese dragon has four claws as standard, but the Imperial dragon has five, this is to identify it above the lesser classes. Anyone other than the emperor using the 5 claw motif was put to death.\n\nThe Chinese dragon (Lung) was a divine bringer of rain, necessary for the good of the people. Throughout Chinese history the dragon has been equated with weather. It is said that some of the worst floodings were caused when a mortal has upset a dragon. The dragon was also a symbol of the emperor whose wisdom and divine power assured the well-being of his subjects. Many legends draw connections between the dragon and the emperor. Some emperors claimed to have descended from the dragon.\n\nChinese dragons of myth could make themselves as large as the universe or as small as a silkworm. They could also change color and disappear in a flash. They rise to the skies in the spring and plunge into the waters in the autumn.\n\nAncient China Dragon occupies a very important position in Chinese mythology. It shows up in arts, literature, poetry, architecture, songs, and many aspects of the Chinese conscience. The origin of Chinese dragons is unknown, but certainly pre-dates the written history. \n\nIn the mythology of various Oriental countries, notably Japan and China, the dragon is the supreme spiritual power, the most ancient emblem in Oriental mythology and the most ubiquitous motif in Oriental art. Dragons represent celestial and terrestrial power, wisdom, and strength. They reside in water and bring wealth and good luck and, in Chinese belief, rainfall for crops. The dragon in traditional Chinese New Year's Day parades is believed to repel evil spirits that would spoil the new year. The five-clawed dragon became the Chinese Imperial emblem (the four-clawed being the common dragon). The three-clawed dragon is the Japanese dragon.

The carp in Japan is called Koi. (They are slightly different than regular goldfish because they have these whisker type things by their mouth) The significance of them is that they have power and can turn into dragons eventually. That's the extent of it that I know.

Of course Chinese. Japanese have "stolen" a lot of characters from Chinese and developed two sets of symbols of their own  syllabic writing: hiragana and katakana, which symbols, strictly speaking, are not characters. But even if you add up hiragana and katakana symbols together with the characters that they are using, the number will still be much less than the number of characters used in Chinese.

Probably asian beatles, nasty little buggers bite too. They were imported because they eat aphids, but have gotten out of hand.

In china in the early ages where they used to stuff the skin of deers and some other animals with tiny rocks and form a sphere then kick it around into small holes. It was then transfered to the british who then made it world wide and spread it all around the world..\n\nSure of it and i can bet on my life..

Actually there are dragons all over myths and cultures all over the world.  Almost every culture has some sort of serpentine or dragon-like creature in it; Chinese, Japanese, Native American, Aztec, Mayan, etc.  In fact, the idea of a serpentine creature that has various powers such as the power to fly, breathe fire, live under the ocean, and such is so wide spread that some consider it proof that dragons once existed.  Although there has been no concrete physical evidence to prove their existence, the wide spread similarities among cultures with no communication with each other about dragons is, in my opinion, too common to be coincident.\n \nPersonally, I believe they did exist at one point.  Or maybe that's just cause dragons rock.  Idk.  However, I believe that this commonality among cultures about creatures also spread to vampires or some sort of blood-sucking creatures.

Danged interesting.  I will look into this.  I have said myself that the future belongs to the best breeders of any species.  Why are the pandas and white tigers endangered and the racoon and rat thriving? Adaptability and reproduction.  It's like WHO do you think are going to inherit the earth? The little WASP couple in the gated community with one or two perfect little lily white children or the Mexican couple with eight kids who will live anywhere and do anything to survive?  Whose kids are going to be the most capable of adapting and thriving? The robust little peasants or the little hot house plants?

I'm particularly fond of dragons and fairies, but especially dragons.  I like the stories about dragons whose hoardes turn out to be books and manuscripts.  That's my kind of creature!\n\nThe legends of dragons have so many points of origin that it's difficult to pick any one to focus on, so I'll go general.  Speculation on the origin of dragons includes that the legends were the result of left-over dinosaurs, for which there are no physical evidence.  Or there is the hypothesis that they began with the Megalania, a giant monitor lizard that is said to be extinct, although there are still rumors of sitings in Australia.  A less-popular theory is that the origin of the myth were flying machines from some undiscovered alien race that visited Earth and perhaps settled here.  Evidence of the belief of dinosaur fossils being the "bones of dragons" is found in ancient Chinese manuscripts, but it is suggested that the bones only reinforced the legends of giant flying creatures, not started them.  There are ancient legends of dragons or serpents to be found in the stories of almost every ancient culture in Europe, Asia and North Africa.  Dragons in almost all cultures have aspects not only of snakes but of the great cats and eagles as well.  They stalk and sneak to catch their prey, they nest in high, rocky areas, and guard their hoardes and eggs with equal ferocity.  Their serpentine nature is obvious, however, especially as the Greek name Drako, meaning snake.\n\nFairies are supernatural beings with a human-like appearance found in many cultures.  They are usually able to do things like fly, cast spells, and see the future.  They are supposed to be very long-lived, and they are not always aware of or caring of the passage of time on Earth.  There are often seen in many physical aspects, tall and beautiful, short and cute, troll-like, etc.  They are often believed to have a weakness when it comes to iron, known as Cold Iron in legends involving them.  There are many legends that tell of fairy changelings; it is said that the fairies will exchange a weak fairy child for a healthy human one and raise it as their own.  Another explanation for this and the well-known propensity for fairy men and women to lure human men and women into their realm is that the fairies, who are supposed to be immortal as well, need new blood, human DNA, to add to their race to keep them healthy and the population up.  It is supposed to be difficult for them to conceive among their own kind, and the children are also often weak, thus the changelings.\n\nThe Irish culture tells that the fairies were the previous inhabitants of Ireland who went "into the hills," or literally moved underground when the original settlers of Ireland appeared.  They are known as the Tuatha De Daanan.  Digging in fairy hills is thought to be particularly unwise.

That is so wierd! I had the same experience, the dragons were probably different than your's though. And my zodiac is not the dragon. My dragons were different to each other too. One was a blue western(or english) dragon. The other was a green-to-red from head to tail and it was an eastern(or chinese) dragon. I was about 6 years old. I was in my room sitting on my bed with the window open. I was staring out the window and I look away for a few seconds, and when I look back these two dragons crawled into my room. And no they weren't lizards, I don't live anywhere near where lizards can live. Oh well, so while they were crawling in they were talking, like your dragons. Only these ones were talking to me and it was like I understood. But they were talking in some other language, an ancient language I suppose. Then my mom called me, I turned around and told her I was coming. When I looked back I just saw the tail of the blue dragon exit through the window. I only saw them once more. I saw the chinese dragon two years ago in the summer.  But that was the last time. And I also did not tell anyone for fear of being considered crazy, a freak, or something else I can't think of right now. Oh well, there's my experience. Hope it did something.\n\nAlso many believe that Dragons are the ultimate creatures. It is said they are in tune with all elements. They are the strongest, wisest, the ugliest or most beautiful, etc. Basically the best of everything. But also the most secretive.

A dingo is a wild dog (Canis lupus dingo).It is commonly described as an Australian wild dog, but it did not originally come from there nor is it restricted to Australia. Modern dingos are found throughout Southeast Asia, in remainingl forest, and in mainland Australia, particularly in the north. They have features in common with both wolves and modern dogs, and are regarded as descendants of an early ancestor of modern dogs. The name dingo comes from the language of the Eora Aboriginal tribe, who were the original inhabitants of the Sydney area. The earliest dingo fossil was found in Vietnam. They can breed with normal dogs and produce offspring. They are believed to have come to Australia 5,000 years ago.\n\nI have never heard of a screaming dingo or exploding dingo.

well chinese and korean people come from africa orginally. okay umm let me explain.\n\nGod gave caine a mark cause caine killed his father, son, daughter in law, and neighbor, okay. then caine turned black from this mark and god sent him to africa. now caine and his family were cursed (that is why africa and asia are poor by the way) and many overpopulated dramaatically and moved to korea, north korea, and china. that is why there are so many african americans in china and Korea and japan and indiana and middle east.

The Chupacabra or chupacabras is a creature resembling a living gargoyle and said to exist in parts of Latin America (mainly Mexico). The Chupacabra is also reported to have been seen by multiple eye-witnesses in Calaveras County, California. According to these reports, the creature was sighted for the first time in the early to middle 1990s, harming animals of different species.
