A large lizard that lives in Indonesia's Lesser Sudan Islands. They are pretty much certified killing machines. They can grow to be more than ten
feet long, and can run up to 12
miles per hour, though some can
go faster. And not to add to their terror, they are versatile swimmers and can swim up to ten
miles per hour. Komodo Dragons not only have deadly bacteria in their mouths, but also a potent poison that can kill you in up to five hours. The Komodo prefer to bite their prey, and then wait for it to die. Eating this partially rotted carrion is why they have the deadly bacteria in their mouths. The Komodo Dragons have developed an antibody to the bacteria so it doesn't harm them. Even with these terrifying
beast inhabiting the Lesser Sudan Islands,
humans still live on the Islands. To adapt to this... convince, the people have built houses on stilts, so the Komodo can not get in their homes. But do not blame these creatures for being so terrifying, they evolved that way to
help them survive. Instead of hating them, we should
help save them. The Komodo Dragons are endangered, only 6,000 left. Please
help save these magnificent creatures.
