Antipodean Opaleye

The Antipodean Opaleye is a breed of dragon native to New Zealand, although it is known to migrate to Australia in search of territory.

Physical Description
The Antipodean Opaleye resides in valleys, which is unusual since dragons typically reside on mountains. They are generally considered one of the most beautiful dragons, with pearly scales that line its body and glittering multi-colored eyes that have no pupils. Their eggs are pale gray and have been known to be mistaken by non-magical individuals for fossils, and its flame is a vivid red.

The Opaleye is not particularly aggressive, rarely killing unless it is hungry. Its prey of choice is sheep, but it has been known to attack larger animals. In the 1970s, several kangaroo killings were thought to have been caused by a male Opaleye that had been ousted from its territory by a dominant female.
