Back in the day when the Earth’s atmosphere had about 35% oxygen (several hundred million years ago – today it’s about 20%), insects could grow larger. There were millipedes 10 feet long, and dragon files the size of geese. And you couldn’t sqish a cockroach under foot; it would take a sizeble and massive club just to stun it.

Small dragon? I think it is the state bird of Michigan, and it hasn’t evolved all that much since B.C.

Mosquitos(sp) a problem in Forgottonia also, ‘but dragonflies about 3 to 4" long. Dragonflies don’t bother humans, though.

That would be considered a small ’skeet in the Mississippi delta where they grow rice each summer.
