In addition to being "not a good idea" it is a really terrible idea. 
If you search the forums you should find quite a few discussions about this, though they did take place a while ago. In a nutshell, they have different heating requirements, different food requirements, and can carry different types of parasites and diseases that to one species is no problem, but can be a large problem to the other. In short, housing them together is not a very good idea.
Thank you for researching before acting! Good luck with your herps and ak more questions if you have them!

Not only a terrible idea, but...you get the picture. Of coarse there are always those ecceptions where someone has made it work for a long time, but as a rule...NO. Differnt needs, diets, etc.

Your dragon my atempt to eat your uro, have heard of it happening. The heat requirements for a uro are high enough to cause BD harm.
