Do you know what the
largest lizard is? This lizard is called komodo. It lives in the scrub and
woodland of a few Indonesian islands.
Komodo dragon is the
world's heaviest lizard, weighing 150 pounds or more. The largest Komodo ever
measured was more than 10 feet (3 meters) long and weighed 366 pounds (166 kg)
but the average size of komodo in the wild is about 8 feet (2.5 meters) long
and 200 pounds (91 kg)
Komodo has gray scaly
skin, a pointed snout, powerful limbs and a muscular tail. They use their keen
sense of smell to locate decaying animal remains from several miles away. They
also hunt other lizards as well as large mammals and are sometimes
cannibalistic.
The Komodo dragon's
teeth are almost completely covered by its gums. When it feeds, the gums bleed,
creating an ideal culture for virulent bacteria. The bacteria that lives in the
Komodo dragons saliva causes septicemia, or blood poisoning, in its victims. A
dragon will bite its prey, and then follow it until the animal is too weak to
carry on.
This lizard species
is threatened by hunting, loss of prey species and habitat loss.

a poor little sparrow. She took it gently and fed it. To show its gratitude,
the sparrow stayed with them and sang every morning. But there was an
