The Komodo Dragon is a reptile. A Komodo Dragon looks like a large muscular lizard with very rough skin that looks like scales but are not scales. A adult Komodo Dragon can weigh around 70kgs, however captive specimens often weigh more, that includes un-digested food. The Komodo Dragon has avery long tail ,evenlonger than its body. It also has 60 replaceable and serrated teeth that can grow up to 1 inch in length. The Komodo Dragon has many deadly bacteria in it's mouth. So a victim of a severe Komodo Dragon bite, near some of the major blood streams (eg. The Jugular Vein) will die of blood poisoning within minutes.

The Komodo Dragon is found in the indonesian islands of Komodo, those include: Rinca, Flores, Gilli Motang and Gilli Dasami and Komodo Park, a national Komodo Dragon reserve. Komodo Dragons are extremely aggresive carnivores, although they mostly eat Carrion (a rotting carcass). They sometimes ambush a live prey with a stealthy approach, when a suitable prey approaches it will charge at the animal and go for the underside of the throat. Komodo Dragons  have been observed knocking down large pigs and deers with their strong tail. The Komodo Dragons are a rare and threatened species. By Ravik Hira.
