What is it about the concept of "fire reptiles" that's so appealing to people?

Dragons and also salamanders are traditionally associated with fire because Aristotle iirc erroneously attributed them to being born from fire having watched them escape from burning logs unscathed.

Human have an inherent fascination with (and fear of) serpents. They also have an inherent fascination with (and fear of) fire. Combining the two is like the most obvious thing in the world.

I imagine Dragons became a thing when people found fossils of dinosaurs and started to wonder what the fuck was that.

But I wonder where their association with fire and fire breathing came from? Was it just random?
