No. It's less horse-dragon and more bird-dragon shaped. These are the worst descriptions ever, but I know I've seen this thing posted in the pub before.

well it for some reason is associated in my mind with something that apparently it shouldnt be associated with. i cant find it.
....fuck
i know EXACTLY what youre talking about though. i just dont have a clue what it is specifically.
edit: someone found it
ive tried going through various taxonomic groups to find similar looking creatures and work from there but it isnt working.
technically it isnt a fish. thats what ive found out so far
im moving on to amphibians.

I'm not sure what it is called.
I remember seeing it when i read that article about the arsenic life. even though that animal has nothing to do with arsenic life.

woo. now i can stop fruitlessly searching through taxonomic shit.
i was so convinced that it was a descendant of lobe finned fish.
look at those extensions. they totally look like lobed fins. i would have never guessed to go the mollusk route.

You rule.  Disaster averted. I was trying to tell my friend what my favorite fish was, but then realized I didn't actually know what my favorite fish was. And now I see it's not actually a fish. 
You are all my fungi-ridden heroes and I love you.
