Villagers believe they have discovered the 60ft skeleton of a dragon in China.

Footage shows people surrounding the suspected remains, which comprise a large skull, two small arms and a spine that extends along the grass.

Chinese social media said the skeleton appeared to have been placed there on purpose, perhaps as a prop for a movie, but so far no one has come forward to fess up.

Local authorities in Zhangjiakou have also yet to release a statement about the so-called dragon remains.

Traditional Chinese dragons are depicted 'swimming' through the air, rather than flapping their wings, as shown in Western mythology, reports the Mirror.
