This is clearly a juvenile dragon. Not only is its size a dead give away, but so too is it's shape.
The chest muscles have not developed enough to power wings of that size sufficiently to allow this beast to become airborne. Picture a chicken's breast, then look at this creature's. Also, like a newly hatched butterfly, it's wings are a bit diaphanous. Much like a human baby, a young dragon needs nurturing. Once the chest muscles develop, and the wings become leathery, this beast will be quite formidable indeed.
