Komodo Dragon
The Komodo dragon is the biggest lizard in
the world. They live on the islands of Indonesia. It is called a ‘dragon’ because of the way it
looks like a dragon. It is a fascinating
animal because it kind of looks like a tuatara.
Komodo dragons like to eat buffalos and can
eat animals that are ten times their size.
They kill by using their venomous bite and just one bite can kill a
fully grown buffalo. The Komodo Dragon’s
spit can be dirtier than a sewer. When
they have bitten their prey, they follow them and wait for them to die before
eating them. The biggest dragon gets the
biggest share of the food.
The Komodo dragon is the biggest type of
lizard in the world. They are dark green
with lots of scales on it. The scales
would be perfect on a wall because they would make nice wallpaper. However, doing this would kill the komodo
dragon (and probably the human trying to get the scales too because the komodo
dragon would most probably bite the human trying to do it, which would kill them
within 24 hours!) They can get up to 10 feet long!
The komodo dragon is endangered for a
couple of reasons. Sometimes they fight
with other komodo dragons and get poisoned by the other animal’s bite. They are hunted by humans, suffer from
habitat loss and find that they have less to eat.
