Komodo

Komodo dragons are the largest, heaviest lizards in the world, and one of the few with a venomous bite.
These stealthy, powerful hunters rely on their sense of smell to detect food, using their long, forked
tongues to sample the air.They can spend hours waiting for a sizable meal to wander within range
before launching a deadly attack with their large, curved and serrated teeth.Komodo dragons are large
lizards with long tails, strong and agile necks, and sturdy limbs. Their tongues are yellow and forked.
Adults are an almost-uniform stone color with distinct, large scales, while juveniles may display a more
vibrant color and pattern.The muscles of the Komodo’s jaws and throat allow it to swallow huge chunks
of meat with astonishing rapidity. Several movable joints, such as the intramandibular hinge opens the
lower jaw unusually wide.The stomach expands easily, enabling an adult to consume up to 80 percent of
its own body weight in a single meal, which most likely explains some exaggerated claims for immense
weights in captured individuals.When threatened, Komodos can throw up the contents of their
stomachs to lessen their weight in order to flee.Although males tend to grow larger and bulkier than
females, no obvious morphological differences mark the sexes. One subtle clue is a slight difference in
the arrangement of scales just in front of the cloaca.
