The staff here at Water Dragon Rescue helps water dragons in need. Did you know that 90% of people believe dragons are a myth? That's because they've never seen one! Water dragons (well dragons in general) are incredibly rare because they are going extinct. Our goal at WDR is to save the water dragon species by captivating the sickly or injured, and watching over the rest in the wild! Every dragon you adopt here has it's own story of maybe it couldn't find food and therefore nearly starved, or got sick from human litter! We nurse these dragons back to health, domesticating them through the process, and allow you users to adopt them!
So what else do we do here? We do basic research here that does not harm the dragons. For instance, we have found out their favorite kinds of food, what they do for fun, how many eggs a female lays at a time, how they like their bowl (decorations), etc.! We have had immense research done here, and that's just the beginning! Currently, we have several types of dragons such as the Retru Dragon and Dwarf Retru Dragon! We have a few other kinds as well, but currently, they aren't ready for adoption, and may not for a little bit.
Retru dragons are a type of endangered species. They live in salty water usually in warmer climates. These dragons come in all sorts of colors and variations. They are long and snake-like, and have 3 sets of fins running down their backs, as well as a pair of side fins on their body and on their head and are also known for their long whiskers. They have a major appetite for shrimp pellets (so we have found out here in the lab) as well as living insects (mainly beetles). They enjoy swimming around their bowl with fish and are very gentle towards them. When upset, a Retru Dragon may swim furiously around the bowl in circles, and it's best not to stick your hand in the bowl at that time (They may bite...)
Retru Dragons also have another type of dragon included with them! The Dwarf Retru Dragon (as shown above) is much like the larger version. The only difference between them is their size! Dwarf Retru Dragons, like normal Retrus, are able to breed when fully grown. They hatch out of a normal sized egg and just stop growing at a smaller length. Dwarfs and normal Retrus can and will breed together. Rarely, when two normal Retrus breed, they may even produce a dwarf! This happens when both parents carry the recessive gene for dwarfism.
Now into more breeding! Retrus like to mate in dark areas, preferably with the water warmer. The female Retru can produce up to six eggs (although that is rare), but normally lays 3-4. For the first 2 weeks of life, baby Retrus can live in the same bowl as their mother, who looks after them until they get a new bowl of their own. After two weeks, the bowl gets crowded from the growing babies. The dragon is fully grown and is able to breed at 6 months. They have a lifespan of 20-25 years.
