Komodo dragons are the largest living lizard in the world. They are a type of monitor Lizard of the Varanidae family. When frightened, Komodo dragons can run up to 18km/h for a short distance. Usually, they run at a slow trot of 8 - 10km/h. The largest Komodo dragon measured weighed 165.9kg (365pounds). Large dragons usually weigh up to 90kg. It is hard to tell the difference between male and female dragons. However, males have a special scale pattern at the based of their tail. generally, males grow larger than females. The largest recorded Komodo dragon length is 3.13m (10feet 2 inches). Female Komodo dragons rarely grow over 2.5m (7feet 6 inches) in length. Scientist believe that Komodo dragons can live up to 50 years, maybe longer. Komodo dragons can swim at least 500m. However, they become sluggish in the water because the water cools their body temperature down.

Young dragons spend most of their time in trees but dragons over 1.5m long can not climb well. Dragons over 2 meters are too heavy to climb trees. The Komodo dragons are constantly regulating their body temperatures. In the early morning, they must warm-up their bodies in the sun. If their body temperature drops too low, the food in their stomach can rot and cause regurgitation or even death. However, the Komodo dragon's body temperature must not exceed 42 degrees celcius (108 degrees Fahrenheit). When it is too hot, they must rest and seek shade to prevent their body from over-heating. Dragons are most active from 6 - 10am in the morning and again from 3 - 5pm in the afternoon. During the rainy season. Komodo dragons stay in burrows if they are too cold. Komodo dragons sleep at night because it is usually too cool for them to be active. They will sleep where they will not loose too much heat at the edge of the savanna and monsoon forest or in burrows. The average sleeping burrow is only 75cm to 1.25m in length. The Komodo dragons will use the burrows of rodents, palm civets, wild board, porcupine (on Flores) and those made by other Komodo dragons. Nesting burrows are about 2 meters long.

Aside from the Komodo dragon being a protected species it's skin is laden with osteoderms (small pointed bones embedded in the skin) which makes its hide unsuitable for boots.

Komodo dragons live on the Island of Komodo in Indonesia. Komodo dragons also live on a few other Indonesian islands.

Its saliva carries 28 different types of infection lethal to humans

A Komodo Dragon does have scales. But they are cold-blooded animals so it is more the color of the skin/scales that regulate temperature.

Someone said that they grow up to 500lbs! That's not true! The average weight is around 200, but they can grow up to 300, and even 10 feet long.

Komodo dragons live on tropical islands where there is no autumn. It is warm all year round.

They'll eat a human baby if it's abandoned and lying around. If you're wounded and bleeding everywhere it'll smell you from a few miles off and come running. They're scavengers first, predators second. So techincally I suppose you could say they eat humans.

Yes, not sure what kind it is, but it can make a cat lethargic for several days.

Well, the Komodo hasn't changed much from the past Megalania, except for the size. I'd say, unless we start planting more trees, and keep Komodo from becoming extinct, the future Komodo will be a smaller version of the ones that you see today.

There are many subspecies, some with only two legs, some with no wings. Komodo are the only known subspecies of European dragons, as their four legs match all other dragons skeletons although they have no wings.

Komodo dragons do not ever encounter lions, because they live on only a few islands in Indonesia, whereas lions only live in Africa and a tiny part of western India. If they did encounter each other, a Komodo dragon may be able to bite a lion and kill it with infection, but the lion would kill the Komodo dragon very quickly after being bitten; thus, Komodo dragons can't and don't eat lions.

Komodo dragons are carnivores, meaning they eat only meat. They stalk live prey, and they are also scavengers, feeding on carrion, or the carcasses of dead animals. They feed on a range of large animals, including monkeys, wild boar, deer, water buffalo, goats, snakes, livestock such as sheep and cattle, and even young ones of their own kind. They have been known to stalk human beings.

Young, newly-hatched komodo dragons feed entirely on insects, but as they grow older, they begin to feed on larger prey such as lizards, birds and small mammals such as rodents. Juvenile komodo dragons also eat eggs.
