Jabberwock

Jabberwock by Stone Gargoyle

The Jabberwock is a creature sometimes mistaken for a dragon. Its true nature is unknown. It is part plant and part animal, having bark-like skin and a long, thin body. Jabberwocks are feared due to their resemblance to dragons but are actually quite civilized creatures, drinking tea and eating crumpets in their caves which are decorated in finery taken from the people it attacks to feed itself. Jabberwocks are carnivorous creatures but do so out of necessity.
