It depends on the prey animal. With small animals, they simply 'grab and chew' to inject toxins into their prey. With something as large as a buffalo, they'll usually group together and 'gang-up' on the animal. One or two bites to the leg will create an open wound, which rapidly becomes infected from bacteria in the lizard's saliva. They simply follow the animal (sometimes for days) until it collapses from the infection.
