Komodo Dragon

Komodo dragons are hunted because they are seen as posing a danger to humans. Whilst they tend to prefer prey such as deer, they have been known to stalk and kill human prey, including fully grown adult males.

they live in kdbidf

autotrophs

In some legends, people cover their armor in spikes. One person fed a dragon a sulphur stuffed sheep. It was so thirsty it drank half a river and exploded.

Generally, you have to resort to trickery. Don't attack a dragon with brute force unless you have a burning desire to be incinerated, cruched, impaled, gutted, skinned, or, of course, eaten.

Ok, the one about the sulphur filled sheep is a load of crap. Sulphur has no effect on dragons, and even if it did, it would taste it and spit it out before swallowing. Trickery isn't a good idea, because the dragon is always smarter than the slayer.

I suggest a sword made of diamonds, or bullets made of the same stuff. How you approach the dragon is up to you. Brute force might work, but you should probably just dodge and weave or snipe from far away.

Nowadays, a dragon would fall easily if you just plainly shot it.

If we think of before, magic would always be good, but the most powerful weapon is actually will.

A dragon is extremely confident, it will always think its power is superior that of mortals, and all mortals will of course flee. But, if one charges into the lair, to take on the dragon head on, it will confuse the dragon, first it will react like a gorilla, it will just be surprised because of your actions, then it will wonder, "If he do like this, without fear, then he must have a secret weapon!", and after some time, it will come to the conclusion that you are mad.

So kill it while its confidence is down.

There is a story that the Komodo dragon was only discovered after WW1, when an aircraft came down in the waters around the islands, and the surviving pilot swam to Komodo Island. This is not quite true.

It is unknown when, exactly, the Komodo dragon was discovered, but the earliest reports seem to be from around 1910-1912, and they came from pearlers and fishermen. The existence of the Komodo dragon was not actually verified until 1926, when W. Douglas Burden, representing the American Museum of Natural history, led an expedition to Komodo, and returned with 12 preserved specimens and 2 living komodo dragons.

The Komodo dragon is native to the Komodo Islands. Komodo dragons migrate only between close islands. They are highly endangered, living only on the Indonesian islands of Komodo, Rinca and Flores.

The Komodo Dragon is a reptile, hence it is reptile shaped.

This has been a subject of much exaggeration, with some reports stating that the animals could grow to a 7 m (23ft), but no such dragon has yet been verified.

The average male dragon doesn't get much larger than 2.15-2.8 m (7-9 ft) and weighs in at more around 54 kg (119 lbs). Females tend to be smaller than males with most hanging around the 2 m (6ft) area.

The largest recorded Komodo dragon was a large 3.13 m (10 ft 2.5 inch) 165.9 kg (365 lbs) male given to a US Zoologist by the Sultan of Bima in 1928. After its death in 1933 it was stuffed and is now held at Tilden Regional Park in Berkely, California.

The Komodo dragon is the world's largest lizard, reaching a length of up to 3.15m or over ten feet, and weighing an average of 70kg, although some have been known to weigh up to 165kg, or 365 pounds. The tail of a Komodo dragon is usually as long as its body. Its sharp, jagged teeth can be as long as 1cm each, and unlike other lizards, it has a long, forked tongue which is bright yellow.

Young komodo dragons are coloured yellow, green, brown or grey and sometimes they are often speckled and banded. Adult dragons are either earthy red in colour, greyish or black. Their bodies are covered with rough, thick and tough scaly skin.

could of went in water or did not clean them selves at all

if the golden eagle were to come down the Komodo dragon would obviously poison it

Yes Komodo Dragons are very deadly predators. They have a very powerful bite and they have a nasty "venom" which is deadly bacteria in their saliva and when the prey is bitten, the saliva works on to the wound and easily kill the prey.

They lay about 30 eggs at a time

Well I don't really know a lot about that but I know that a female Komodo usually hisses when refusing something -usually a romeo Komodo male- xP !!

no thay have one mate

Komodo dragons are lizards; they are reptiles. Reptiles don't fly. And no known animal that ever lived breathes out fire. It is just called dragon; it is not anything like dragons of myth. They are also called komodo monitors.

Yes, komodo dragons are a species of lizard.

No. Some smaller lizards can, though, like anoles and chameleons.

The komododragon reaches a length of 3 meters and a weight of approx 150 kilograms.

It is unknown as to how much a baby komodo dragon weighs because it can vary allot.

Depending on the size and strength of the mugger crocodile, the mugger crocodile has a better chance in water than on land. Since water buffaloes are very large and are adapted to swim in water, they are able to fight and maul a mugger crocodile with their horns if the crocodile is not careful. If the mugger crocodile and the water buffalo fought on land, the water buffalo would easily trample the mugger crocodile to death.

their babys are called komodo drangons and they always be like that
