Scuttleclaw

The Scuttleclaw is a new dragon in How to Train Your Dragon 2. It is a Sharp Class dragon.

Appearance
It resembles a cross between a Deadly Nadder and a Hideous Zippleback. It's head is similar to a Zippleback's, and its body, legs and feet are reminiscent of a Nadder's. It has spines like those of a Zippleback too, and has a long tail. Scuttleclaws come in a large variety of colors (green, purple, reddish-brown, yellow, etc.)

Behavior
"We can't fly these things!"

- Tuffnut

"They are babies, they don't listen to anyone!"

- Hiccup

So far, only baby Scuttleclaws have been seen. As infants, they are playful and listen to no one. Not even a Bewilderbeast can put them under command. And this trait could be, rather eccentrically, one of few countermeasures effective to resist to the kings' dragon controlling. They also enjoy playing with Toothless, though the feeling isn't mutual. Scuttleclaws often scatter, when they are roared at by other, larger Dragons, such as Cloudjumper.

Abilities
Even for infants, Scuttleclaws have proven to be quite powerfull. They were able to carry heavy Vikings, such as Gobber and Fishlegs. It also appears they have green fire, though they haven't been seen using it in the second film. Like all baby Dragons, Scuttleclaws are immume for the Bewilderbeast's control.

Trivia

 * Assuming from it's size as a baby (being nearly the size of Toothless), an adult Scuttleclaw must be extremely large.
 * Its mouth is very wide.
 * They resemble a mix between a Hideous Zippleback and Deadly Nadder, with the personality of a Terrible Terror.
 * They seem to bite a lot, or just nibble when playing around with things, people or other dragons.
 * This was demonstrated with Toothless; a yellow Scuttleclaw was biting his tail.
 * As seen in the film, baby Scuttleclaws can fly pretty fast, where the teens were flying with them. Was seen, that even Gobber flyed on baby Scuttleclaw with no signs of struggling. That means, that an adult Scuttleclaws will most likely be very fast and strong.
 * It is possible that Scuttleclaws don't grow up like the axolotl, which could be why we only see baby Scuttleclaws.
 * It appears that Scuttleclaws shoot green fire, or at least green fireballs.
