Camera Critters: Komodo Dragon, Island of Komodo, Indonesia

One of several photos I took on the island of Komodo of one of its residence and namesake, the Komodo Dragon. These species of Monitor Lizard are said to grow up to 10 ft long, they are highly carnivorous and dangerous-even their offspring have to hide in the trees in case they get eaten after hatching. They have venom glands in their mouths which paralyses their prey rendering it helpless, allowing the dragon to eat the prey when its died from the poison.
