There are actually very few similarities between the komodo dragon and the fictitious creature known as a dragon. They both breathe using lungs, but the fictitious dragon breathes out fire whereas the komodo dragon breathes ordinary air. The komodo dragon has scaly skin, whereas a dragon is generally believed to have scales.
No. Iguanas are a type of agama.
Komodo Dragons are monitor lizards. Iguanas are 'plant-eaters' and Komodos are carnivores.
Komodo Dragons kill by toxification. Iguanas don't kill at all.
No, no, not even close! Iguanas are mostly herbivores and Komodo Dragons are carnivores. Iguanas have spikes running down their backs and Komodo Dragons have smooth, scaly backs. Generally, Iguanas have shorter snouts than most lizards, and the Komodo Dragons are the most powerful lizards.
yes the are the can swim
Yes they are, though there are closer relatives of dinosaurs. Crocodiles and alligators are more closely related to dinosaurs than lizards such as the komodo dragon are. Even more closely related are birds.
No, komodo dragons do not own pets. Especially no dragons. Dragons are really hard pets and komodo dragons know. Yet they might be related to the ancient stories about dragons...
No. Komodo dragons are real animals, and members of the lizard family. Dragons are fictitious creatures.
Nope, reptiles such as crocodiles, alligators, komodo dragons, etc can definitely get big
habits of komodo dragons
Komodo dragons eat monkeys and other komodo dragons, but they do not eat fish.

In a sense, yes. Alligators are related to dinosaurs, or rather, are the only surviving dinosaurs that did not "evolve." Birds are also surviving dinosaurs, but they evolved from the larger, reptilian types of dinos. Alligators, and crocodiles, just got smaller. I know what you are thinking, "How does that answer the question? It asks if alligators are related to dragons, not dinosaurs." In ancient times, people referred to dinosaurs as dragons. Dragons are also mentioned in the Bible to refer to dinosaurs.
There are none known to hunt Komodo dragons. Komodo dragons are at the top of their food chain, so to speak. The only thing that hunts komodo dragons are other komodo dragons.
yes when baby komodo dragons are born they run up trees so they don't get eaten by them so yes adult komodo dragons do eat baby komodo dragons
No. As lizards, Komodo dragons are not closely related to dinosaurs. Birds are directly descended from dinosaurs and are considered to be dinosaurs be evolutionary bilogists. After that the closest relatives of dinosaurs are Komodo dragons.
