Harry Potter's dragons are real?

While I was hunting for dragon stuff today I found something very kewl. Did you know that there is really a dragon that is straight out of Harry Potter? Well, more or less. There is at least a newly discovered dragon species that has been named for J.K. Rowling's creation.

Dracorex hogwartsia - "dragon king of Hogwarts" - was discovered in the Hell Creek Formation in South Dakota by three amateur paleontologists from Sioux City, Iowa. Now at home in the Children's Museum of Indianapolis, the dinosaur that could be a dragon is estimated to be 66 million years old.

Tell me this fellow does not look like all he needs is a nice set of bat-like wings...
