Actually funny as it is, Moc Dragon's tale is an element that adds a bit of historicity to the tale. I grew up eating Moch Hare (Danish meatloaf) and Mock Turtle Soup, so there is also an air of familiarity to it.

(Yes, the popular illustrations have been lying to us.)
I had forgotten the stegosaurus, but that is a brilliant example.
