The Komodo Dragon

via

Komodo dragons have existed for millions of years in the Sunda Islands of Indonesia. They are considered the heaviest lizards on the planet, weighing more than 300 pounds each and reaching a length of about ten feet. They have big, muscular tails and will eat just about anything. Komodo dragons are skilled hunters, preferring to camouflage themselves and lie in wait for their prey. They use their sharp claws and razor-like teeth to eviscerate their victims, waiting for prey to bleed out and go into shock before ripping into it. Komodo dragons also have venom glands, ensuring that their victims don’t escape once they have been bitten.
