Neotropical Dragons are a breed that originate in rainforests. They are fun-loving and enjoy lounging on tree branches, eating whatever fruit they find. They are also often found sunning themselves on rocks, using their large wings to soak up the rays. In the summer, males compete for mates by showing off their striped wings and gliding in spirals down the tree trunks. It is said that the larger the wings, the more likely the male will attract a suitable mate.

Dragons are highly-intelligent reptilian creatures that—from a human perspective, at least—appear to live forever. Many different varieties of dragon exist, each with their own unique qualities, habitats, and behavior. Adolescence in dragons is usually marked by the growth of a hatchling’s wings, although not all breeds of dragons grow wings and some breeds have other traits that indicate the beginning of maturation. In Galsreim, dragons and humans coexist peacefully.

Treetop Tiger had never seen a tree before she came to the Royal Menagerie.  Her previous owners had kept her in a heated greenhouse, but one filled only with small plants.  She spent her first few weeks at the menagerie at the very top of the tree in her enclosure, which is how she got her name.  Now that she's become more used to her surroundings, she likes to entertain spectators by jumping from branch to branch of her tree.  Treetop Tiger is considerably more energetic than Quenzel, and spends most of her waking hours in motion.
