Komodo dragons

  The Komodo dragon is the largest lizard in the world. It is a monitor lizard - a group of reptiles making up some of the largest lizards in the world. The Komodo dragon has a gruesome way of hunting. It will bite its prey and inject deadly venom  into the blood of the unlucky target. Then all it has to do is stalk it's prey until it dies from the venom. They live on some islands in Indonesia - specifically Komodo - and are found nowhere else in the world. Males will fight during the breeding season over a mate and the battles can be brutal. This is definitely a beast to beware.Komodo Dragon Teeth: Everything You Need to Know - AZ Animals
