THE KING LIZARD KOMODO DRAGON!

The Komodo dragon(Varanus komodoensis)today im going to go over the komodo dragon.
The komodo dragon grows to an average length of 6.5-10 feet and weighs up too 365 pounds.(komodo is the current king of the lizrdslol)
Komodo Dragons are a member of the monitor lizard family and only inhabit the islands of Komodo,
their visual discrimination is poorThey use their tongue to detect taste and smell ,and thier sense of smell is keen,and
may be able to detect carrion(a dead carcuss) up to 5 mile away
komodos are not venomous but thier saliva is filled with bacteria to the point of being highly poisenous.
Komodo Dragons are found exclusively in Indonesia, and the lesser sunda archipelago..
Komodo Dragons are very dangerous and are a endangered species(so dont even think about trying t own one unless you want to violate some federal laws and you just may become its dinner)komdo dragons eat just about any animal it can catch.(humans included)they way they hunt is to hide and wait and then ambush thier intened prey.even if the prey escapes ,the bite from the komodo is so deadly that the komodo dragon will just follow the prey until it dies from the infectious bite.komodo dragons will also eat dead carcusses.
