Until now, no one knows 100% whether the Cannibal Dragon is alive or dead.
There is a theory that it may have been alive until the events of A Song of Ice and Fire.
The Cannibal Dragon was an incredibly strong wild dragon that could not be tamed throughout the Dance.
It flew away after Corlys' death.
Many assume that it died of old age, but the theory casts doubt on this.
First of all, we do not know how long dragons live.
The only dragon that died of old age was Balerion, the Black Horror, who was not in good health.
Because he was used in wars and suffered severe injuries after his journey to Valyria.
All of this, of course, will affect his life, and even up to these events, what happened to him was that he lived for 200 years.
In comparison, the Cannibal Dragon was about 100 years old at the time of the Dance.
And he was not exposed to any fighting/injuries.
And he lived outside the dragon pit.
He ate dragon meat to keep him strong.
Under certain conditions It is very basic that Cannibal lives 100 years longer than Balerion.
The theory says that Cannibal is in Skagos and will participate with Rickon or they will meet in some way.
Also, the shape of the Cannibal dragon is similar to the distinctive shape of Shaggydog in the Stark wolves, all of them are black and have green eyes like a dragon (Ghost's shape was interpreted as him having albinism).
Also, Rickon is a wild character like the Cannibal dragon.
Also, George stated that there will be a dance of dragons that will take place in the winds of winter, and it is absolutely not reasonable that the dance will take place with Dany's dragons only! And basically who of the characters currently present can tame and ride Dany's dragons?
It is known that Euron might kidnap a dragon from her because of the horn that controls the dragons with him.
But this way, how could someone take the other dragon from her, tame it and ride it?
So there will definitely be other dragons other than Dany's dragons.
And it is also possible that George meant by the dragon dance the war between Dany and Aegon, who calls Varys and Aleryo Mopatis a Targaryen and the son of Rhaegar.
And it is said that it is a conspiracy from them to install the son of Blackfyre on the throne.
And if he is Blackfyre, he can tame a dragon because he carries the blood of a dragon, whether it is Dany's dragon or another dragon!
And the dance happens then
What do you think of this theory and what could be the relationship between Recon and Cannibal
I think the relationship will be between Cannibal and Shaggydog and we will get an explanation for their appearance and their wild nature which is different from the rest of their species of dragons and wolves
