The dragon in Revelation is figurative language, not a literal dragon. It's apocalyptic imagery and symbolic of Satan.
> The talking donkey
We should think of God talking through the donkey rather than the donkey talking with human speech, just as God speaks from a cloud or from a burning bush. The cloud isn't talking, nor is the bush talking. In this case, it's not the donkey talking but God speaking out from within the donkey.
