The trio feared that Hagrid would arrive trouble, and and so convinced him to get rid of the dragon. The infant dragon looked "similar a crumpled black umbrella" with large spiny wings, a skinny body and a long snout with wide nostrils, horn stubs and jutting, orange eyes.

However, as the young dragon grew, it became likewise violent and unsafe to keep. After Norbert scrap Ron Weasley's hand, for which he had to get to the Infirmary Wing due to the venom in its fangs, Hagrid had no selection but to release Norbert to Charles Weasley, who worked with dragons in Romania.[1]
When Hagrid met Charlie at Neb Weasley and Fleur Delacour'southward wedding, he was informed that the dragon, originally idea to exist a male person named Norbert, was now called Norberta, as Charlie had discovered that she was in fact a female. He said that he was able to tell by the females being much more fierce and ferocious.[ii]

Norberta as seen in Harry Potter: Puzzles & Spells
- Norberta has a different departure in the pic accommodation of Harry Potter and the Philosopher'due south Stone. Instead of her presence remaining a secret and Harry and Hermione handing her over to Charlie's friends, the Hogwarts staff becomes enlightened of her, and Dumbledore had her sent off to Romania. As well, the dragon is shown to be affectionate with the groundskeeper, rather than violent. Considering of this difference in behaviour, it is possible that Norbert is in fact a male person in the film version of the story.
