Rank 3: Dragon Keeper
- Notable Representatives: Charlie Weasley
One could likely count dragon keepers among magizoologists as well. However, since we encounter them in Harry Potter as a specific profession, we want to give them their own place in the ranking here.
As the name suggests, dragon keepers work exclusively with the large fire-breathing beasts. To hide the not-so-discreet creatures from Muggles, dragons are kept exclusively in special reserves. There, they are cared for, monitored, and researched by dragon keepers. The largest dragon reserve is located in Romania, where Charlie Weasley works.
Since dragons are among the most dangerous magical creatures, the job of a dragon keeper is extremely perilous. During the Triwizard Tournament in part 4, we learn that several trained witches and wizards are needed to control a single dragon. Dragons are, after all, highly resistant to most spells due to their scales.
