'''Bone Dragons''' are large, hydra-like dragon skeletons that [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshis]] encounter underground in the game ''[[Yoshi's Story]]''. Bone Dragons usually block Yoshi's way, and to get past them, Yoshi has to either throw [[Yoshi Egg]]s at its head, or [[Ground Pound]] it, with either method taking two hits to defeat the Bone Dragon. Bone Dragons aren't completely defenseless, however, as they can attack the Yoshis by occasionally spitting a fireball at them.

Bone Dragons are large hydra-like dragon skeletons that Yoshis encounter in the Bone Dragon Pit in Yoshi's Story. Bone Dragons usually block a Yoshi's way, and to get past one, the Yoshi has to either throw eggs at its head or ground-pound it, with either method taking two hits to defeat the Bone Dragon. Bone Dragons are not completely defenseless, however, as they can attack the Yoshis by occasionally spitting a fireball at them.

In a couple of cases, a Yoshi encounters a three-headed Bone Dragon, complete with a body. Each of the heads takes two hits, and the Yoshi receives three melons when the Bone Dragon is defeated. Touching the body does not hurt the Yoshi.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl has a sticker of a Bone Dragon that raises the strength of attacks that involve biting by thirteen. It can be used only by Yoshi, Wario, Pokémon Trainer, and Wolf.
