Another Facebook chain status, played along with by many of the same people, resulted in this mock article several months after the velociraptor story.
"On the heels of a gang of dangerous velociraptors, along comes another threat to peace and safety. A pack of dragons have been reported seen in the area, leaving destruction in their wake.
"About three weeks ago, the children of Kirsten Jackson were eaten by dragons, leaving unhappy farm animals to mourn the loss. Last week, Julie Boland, who narrowly survived an encounter with raptors, had her house burn down by their flames; she has since found temporary housing with her parents. Wesley Coburn was injured while trying to get a picture of the creatures, he was taken to the hospital. Billy Veytovich lamented his entire collection of classic rock CDs, as many of them went the way of Jimi Hendrix's guitars.
"The Okmulgee County Sheriff's Office has a reward out for some of these dangerous creatures, who are thought to have been induced to come out of hiding by the wildly successful movie How To Train Your Dragon. No one knows exactly what they look like, but it's generally agreed upon that they have wings, can fly, breathe fire, live near colleges and high school(like in Dewar) and are almost never grateful.
"The OCSO issued this statement: 'We have no idea why the uprise of these mythological creatures is happening, but we're doing the best we can to stop it.' They provided these tips on how to stay safe from dragon attacks: 1, Always carry a fire extinguisher, 2, Hide in the shower whenever possible, and 3, Stay away from known places where dragons exist.
"More details will be provided when known."
