What if....

That's it lads, be optimistic.

-I find it hilarious that we are viewing this whole thing from the P.O.V. of agressor dragons... while most 'animal intelligences' don't destroy the environment to heat their burritos...

[Chabelis]

By all accounts, dragons have been slain by some of our most primitive weapons before… assuming we’re to believe ancient tales.
I am rather certain that if they were to return, no matter how powerful they were, they still wouldn’t be able to compete with the fire power that humans have.

I still like to believe that they would have higher intelligence than many creatures do today, and if they did I believe they’d make themselves rather scarce rather than offer themselves up for scientific research.

I might be the only person here that wasn't really satisfied with the way dragons were depicted in Reign of Fire. ><

Well, I liked their portrayal of the male's attack pattern. The problem is that they just glazed over how dragons managed to survive being nuked.
