For me, the Dragonette is the cutest species of dragon!

Dragonettes are easily trained. During World War I, the German Drachwaffe became a huge threat to English civilians, that advisories were displayed throughout most of the country.

They gather in large flights, containing hundreds of individual species for protection along the tall cliffs and plains in which they nest.
Dragonettes have large, round eyes that allow peripheral vision while feeding. Short muzzles and small teeth are designed for chewing tough plants and grass.

Varieties and breeds of Dragonettes can be found in almost all the region of the world, and they can range in size from the small 91cm to the large working breeds, 5m. Although they aren't as intelligent as many other trained animals, Dragonettes have been used for transportation and military use, allowing for a flying cavalry in use in ancient Egypt and the American Civil War. Many famous legions of "Dragoniers" include "Napoleon's Dragoniers", the "Royal British Dragon Guard", the "German Drachwaffe" and the "American Dragon Express Mail Service".

Most Dragonettes have been used by military commanders to scope out the battlefield and carry messages, although in China, World War 1, bombs dropping from the air has been attempted from the Chin Dynasty. Soon after WWI, the "Dragonette Bomb Dropping" was replaced by the Airplane.
Today, Dragonettes are now solely kept by breeders and racers

A common messenger Dragonette species is the Courier Dragonette (189cm - 2m).
These small dragons are used to carry messages over long distances, even in WWI.
