Anyone have any info on this picture please?

I was looking at a pic of what may be the Aurora when i stumbled on this very strange picture.
www.unexplained-mysteries.com...
Now im sure this is a fake ( 99.9% sure ) but im interested in its history. Quite frankly ive never seen anything like it. i have not experience in Zoology or Cryptozoology so this seemed like the best place to get an opinion.
All i have been able to find is that it dates to the 1890's and was found in a garage. I've done a google and a search of the board but can find nothing. As i said before i think its a fake but am kind of interested in where it came from.
Well guys? what do you think? Strange object isnt it?

Amazing the lengths people will do to hoax.

Thanks for the heads up Djarums, im still getting used to the ATS search engine so missed that thread. sorry for the repost. Still a facinating bit of bunkum tho.

I came across this months ago on my web browser. Definitely proved to be 100% fake. My question is how was this fake made?

Dread,

If you read the links posted by Black Jackal (i.e. do any research at all ) there is a very clear description as to how the model was made and put in a bottle.

Peace,

No wonder it looks real if the guys from "walking with dinosaurs" made it, bet it cost a pretty penny as well........i dont think ill be buying the book tho.

i wish it was real....still cool looking though

thats a major hoax, you can see that its rubber just by looking at it.

the jar could be a nice garden bucket....

Really? Is this the detail you were talking about?

" In fact, the dragon was created by Crawley Creatures, the model makers behind the BBC's Walking with Dinosaurs television series, and the jar in which it was stored was made by a glass-blowing studio in the Isle of Wight."
