How do komodo dragons live?
- ๐๏ธ 7
Komodo dragons are large carnivorous reptiles found on the islands of Komodo, Rinca, Flores, and Gili Motang in Indonesia. They are apex predators in their environment, feeding on a variety of animals, including deer, pigs, and smaller reptiles. Komodo dragons are solitary and territorial, with males often competing for dominance and access to mates. They are known for their ability to ambush prey, using their keen sense of smell to detect carrion or wounded animals from miles away. Komodo dragons are also known to have a venomous bite, which helps to incapacitate their prey. Mating occurs during the rainy season, and females lay eggs in burrows, where they incubate for several months.
