F A Q
Diet The Myth
D i e t
What do Komodo dragons eat?
Meat, meat and more meat. Komodo dragons are strictly carnivorous. Adults eat more Sunda deer (Cervus timorensis, also known as Rusa deer) than anything else. They also eat wild boar, water buffalo, rats and many other animals...including young Komodos. Much of what Komodos eat is carrion (already dead meat.) Okay, what do young dragons eat, and how do they avoid being eaten?
When they hatch out of their eggs, baby dragons are typically 12 to 15 inches long, and weigh less than 4 ounces (1/4 pound). For the first few years of their lives they spend much of their time up in the trees, to avoid being eaten by adult Komodos. During this time they mostly eat insects (especially grasshoppers and beetles) and smaller reptiles (especially geckos). At about 4 years old and 4 feet long, a young Komodo is large enough to (usually) escape its predatory elders, and has become too large to be safely supported by the smallish trees in the monsoon forest. For the rest of its life it will be primarily terrestrial.

Back to the adults: How do they catch their prey? And hey, what's this I hear about deadly saliva?

And, lest we inappropriately put all of the blame on people, natural catastrophessuch as fires and hurricanes are not uncommon within the komodos range.

C o n s e r v a t i o n
Why are Komodo dragons endangered?
They were forced to abandon one island in the 1970s and 80s when their prey was heavily poached by people. One the island of Flores, Komodo habitat is shrinking rapidly as people consume more and more of it. And, lest we inappropriately put all of the blame on people, natural catastrophes such as fires and hurricanes are not uncommon within the Komodos' range. In 1969 a major volcanic eruption covered much of the region with a layer of ash which killed many plants. With a restricted-range animal like the Komodo, a major natural disaster could have a traumatic effect on populations. The Komodo dragon has the smallest range of any large predator in the world. The total land area occupied by this species is smaller than King County in Washington state.

26. The Komodo Dragon
komodos are the only animal, besides humans, that willingly control their population(by way of eating their own eggs). komodos are diurnal and solitary.
http://web.fccj.org/~dbyres/2011projects/komodo/dragon.htm
The Komodo Dragon (Varanus komodoensis) By: Daniel Hiller The Komodo dragon was first discovered to the scientific world by accident. During the First World War a pilot crashed into Indonesian waters and swam to safety to a nearby island. What he didn’t realize at first was that this island he found was not safe! He soon found out that these giant lizards never seem to most of the world before lived on the island. Luckily, the pilot was able to radio to home and was picked up but no one believed his "dragon" story. Later, an expedition was formed and his reports were confirmed. Physical Characteristics Varanus komodoensis Habitat
The Komodo dragon mostly lives on the Komodo Island of Indonesia. These groups of islands are called Lesser Sunda Islands. All are part of Indonesia. Komodos live in self-dug burrows in the terrain. They like hot, arid grasslands on the island. The Komodo Island is about 520 sq. km. The highest elevation is 825 m. There is only one village on the entire island where humans live. It is called the Komodo Village and they practice Muslim. Komodos are not a real threat to the village because they know and respect the Komodos. They are lived together for hundreds of years. Diet The diet of the Komodo dragon is somewhat simple, anything it kills! They are carnivorous and primarily feed on Sunda deer. They will also prey on birds, snakes, wild horses, wild boar, water buffalo, and very seldomly humans! There has only been one death from the village people and more from tourists. The tourists have more of a chance of an attack because they don’t really understand the Komodo dragon like the people who inhabit the islands. Komodo will also feed on any kind of carrion (already dead meat). The young Komodos feed on insects and geckos while they live in the tees.

27. Komodo Dragon Lizard Information
Compared with lions and other carnivores, komodos can eat larger bitesof meat with each bite and waste no time in swallowing or chewing.

Komodo dragon lizard information
What is a Komodo dragon? Komodo dragons, or Komodo monitors, are actually lizards. They just happen not to spend much time in the water and are much larger than other lizards. They grow as large as six-feet long and can be fairly substantial in weight. They aren't generally very fast creatures, but their hunting strategies are based on power and size. Compared with lions and other carnivores, Komodos can eat larger bites of meat with each bite and waste no time in swallowing or chewing. The lizards tend to prey on animals like monkeys, goats, wild boars, and rodents. bodyOffer(1099) Komodos have four legs and prefer tropical climates. The reason there aren't many of them around is because young Komodos often end up as victims of prey to larger animals. However, if they can live past their fifth birthday, there's a good chance they'll be fine. Mating generally happens in the summer and males regularly get into fights over the females. When they fight, the Komodos lean back on the hefty tails for support as they grab each other's forelegs and attempt to wrestle the other to the ground. The most powerful get to breed. Why are Komodo dragons mysterious?

28. Animal Planet :: Corwin's Carnival Of Creatures

The Komodo Dragon
Order Family Genus and Species
Squamata Varanidae Varanus komodoensis Located between eastern Sumbawa and western Flores are three tiny grass-covered islands:
Komodo, Padar and Rinca, which together form the Komodo National Park system and are
home to the largest lizard in the world.....the Komodo Dragon.
These lizards live in one of the driest regions of indonesia with few permanent water sources
with differing temperatures influencing the range of the komodo dragon. The monsoon winds
bring little moisture to the region....the trade winds which blow in from Australia also offer
little relief in the way of moisture. Temperatures in the Komodo National Park , range from a
high of around 115 degrees fahrenheit to a low of around 60 degrees fahrenheit.
This huge reptile, discovered in 1912, grows to lengths of 10 feet for males and slightly smaller for females. They weigh between 200 and 300 lbs. and reach sexual maturity in around 6 years.

Description:
The Komodo Dragon (Varanus Komodoensis), also called Ora by villagers of the island of Komodo, is the largest reptilian animal. Komodos usually have a greenish-brown color of scales. It grows from 23 cm in length at birth (from tip of tail to snout) to an adult size of 3 m. The weight of most males is about 175-200 lbs and the females usually weigh in about 150-160 lbs. but some Komodos have been over 300 lbs! The Komodos are carnivores with poisonous bites that eat large mammals, including humans. ! Just like all other varanids, monitor lizards, Komodo's have small heads, sturdy bodies and long, powerful tails. Usually varanids are either land predators or sea predators but the Komodo is a land and sea predator. There are about 5,000 Komodo Dragons alive today but only 350 of those are actually breeding females. Not that much is known about the Komodo Dragon because they were not discovered until the 1900's
Environment:
These magnificent creatures live in the Indonesian islands of Flores, Rintja, Pada, and Komodo, the main dwelling of these extraordinary creatures.

KOMODO MONITOR CONTINUED Range and Habitat: Komodo monitors are found on the three small Indonesian islands of Komodo, Rinca and the western end of Flores. Komodo monitors inhabit areas that are commonly hot and dry for much of the year, but are subjected to a short monsoon season during which most of the year's 35 inches of rain occurs. Preferred vegetation can vary from dry open grasslands and savannas, to tropical forests at lower elevations. Habits and Adaptations :: Young monitors are well adapted to their arboreal life where their coloration is a useful camouflage and the slender body, long tail and sharp claws enable them to move through the trees. As they become older, the coloration changes as does the body confirmation and many of the daily habits. They eventually become terrestrial where they become more interactive with other Komodos and change feeding habits to larger prey and carrion.

Komodo Dragons This is a wonderful creature that lives in the lowlands, grasslands, and palm trees of Indonesia, In these islands they're about 2,500-5,000 Komodos. With a weight of 200 pounds and a length of up to 8.6 ft. This is a picture of the Islands of Komodo, courtessy of www.starfish.ch. History- Komodo dragons go as far back as 250 million years ago where they were just small little monitors. But as time went on some monikers grew apart from others and migrated as Southeast as they could get and eventuly ended up some where in Europe and South Asia. As you would think komodos would be related to dinosaurs. But they aren't related, alligators and crocodiles are more related to dinosaurs. As shallow water came in the lizards started there journey, swimming and walking to North Australia where on there way stayed in Indonesia. The komodos in Australia died out and in Indonesia there was huge and bigger animals. So they evolved to being about 28 ft in length! That's one big lizard, it's the biggest in the world. Here is a picture of A beautiful Komodo dragon, courtesy of www.webshots.com.

KOMODO DRAGON To view our Komodo Dragon iMovie, click on the button for your connection speed. Dial Up DSL The Komodo dragon is an endangered animal, and they are highly capable of killing a human. Komodos eat any type of meat they can find. Even if it is a younger komodo or human. Komodo dragons live in the islands of Komodo, Rica , and Glores. Komodos have very sharp claws. Komodos have deadly saliva that is full of fifty different bacterias and seven of them are deadly. Komodo dragons are blackish , grayish , with a sandy color. Komodos can only run about 25 to 30 miles per hour. Komodos can live up to 50 years old in wild. Male komodos weigh about 400 to 550 pounds and are 10 to 12 feet long! That is about 4 meter sticks! That's why they can't really run that fast. Female komodos weigh a lot less than males. They only weigh about 115 to 150 pounds; they still can't run that fast. Females are shorter than males; they are 7 to 8 feet long. Komodos usually mate after catching a big carcass. The eggs develop for 6 to 8 weeks. The mother lays her eggs in a borrow or takes over a another komodo's borrow. She lays about 15 to 30 eggs. The mother then just walks away and doesn't protected them. The eggs hatch in about 8 or 9 mouths. When they hatch they scurry up the nearest tree to start looking for insects which they feed on until they get too big for the tree.

    Jeff Barringer - Our Next guest is Trooper Walsh and his topic is breeding Komodos but Im sure he will answer questions about those ugly green snakes (Chondros) he keeps too.
    Trooper Walsh - Chondros rule, dragons drool!
    amazoa - What is the largest Komodo on record Mr. Walsh?
    Trooper Walsh - 10 feet + and over 250lbs
    BillC - I was watching a nature show, wild things, and they did a bit on Komodo dragons. there were basically two types in the village on Komodo island. The wild, dangerous, stealthy Komodo dragons....and the slow, fat ones that hung around the villages. the villagers would feed the dragons, they were extremely tame, or at least they looked it, can Komodo dragons truly be tame like this?
    Trooper Walsh - Yes, They are just like people (but more intelligent), some are nice and others not so nice, they have good and bad days.
    BrianT - Why did you decide to work at a zoo?
