Hungarian Horntail

Hungarian Horntail

Native to Hungary, the Hungarian Horntail was considered to be one of the most dangerous species of dragons. With black scales, a spiked tail and a lizard-like appearance, the Horntail also had yellow eyes with vertical cat-like pupils, bronze horns and a vicious attitude. Harry Potter drew the short straw in the Triwizard Tournament when he was given the Hungarian Horntail to face off with. He used the Summoning Charm to acquire his broom and his flying skills to give him the upper-hand over the dragon, and was able to seize their egg without being burned, eaten or sent flying from his broom!
