komodo dragon


A komodo dragon is the largest lizard on earth.  Komodo dragons weigh at least 145 pounds.  And it has a tongue as long as a snake. Deer is the biggest animal it could eat.

  2. Dear Jakob,

    What a terrific post complete with photos and text! Well done!

    I like to always add new facts to a post. One thing I know about Komodo dragons has to do with their saliva. It has a toxic bacteria in it, so even if the bitten prey gets away...it will soon die from the toxic bacteria in the saliva!

    How often does a Komodo dragon have to eat? Also, how long do they live?

    Thanks for a great post!

    bigger animal then a deer when it is hungry.
