Suppose you are a dragon trainer in the Viking tribe. How would you train a dragon to fly without using a saddle?
To train a dragon to fly without using a saddle, I would start by building a strong relationship with the dragon and earning its trust. Then, I would start by teaching the dragon to flap its wings and balance in the air by using treats and positive reinforcement. Once the dragon has mastered these skills, I would slowly start to teach it how to fly on its own without a saddle by practicing takeoff and landing on the ground, and then gradually increasing the height of the flight.
Describe the importance of the dragon training program in the Viking tribe.
As a Viking warrior defending the village against dragon attacks, I would use different strategies depending on the type of dragon attacking. For example, if the dragon was breathing fire, I would use water to put out the flames. If the dragon was flying, I would use arrows or a catapult to try to knock it out of the sky. I would also try to work together with other warriors to distract the dragon and keep it away from the village.
