Dragon is not as loved as a dinosaur. Perhaps this is because: Dinosaur is more scientific, so perceived as if it is something more close to us, while the dragon lives in myths, being a remote concept.
Dragon is dangerous, while dinosaurs, however fierce and huge, are innocent animals. Since they occupied Earth before us and also were at the top of the food chain, we easily feel they are like us.
TODO.
In folk stories, dragons do not love. Dragons serve as purposeless evil characters: to be conquered, usually by the knight, to rescue the princess from the dragon.
