I’m surprised that no one has commented on the obviously anti-Muslim bias of this creature. Someone should contact CAIR.

I recall that one bit Sharon Stone’s then-husband on the toe around 6 years ago.

Bob and Ray (anyone remember them?) do a hilarious sketch about the Komodo Dragons; catch it on tape if you get a chance.

Didn’t Sharon Stone take her husband to visit one at the zoo for a birthday present—husband got a bad bite on the foot from it. Seems like their marriage soon broke up after that.

Yes. He should feel very lucky that he survived. Most don’t.

"When they goet a whiff of it they come running."

Komodo mating season is May-August with males becoming more aggressive and territorial. The boy's urine, which Komodos can smell with their tongue, may have further aggravated this Komodo.

These lizards are not predictable and can move suddenly, inflicting a lethal bite and mauling the victim with their sharp claws.

IMO, permitting an 8-year-old to be anywhere near them or to stray unsupervised into Komodo territory is criminally irresponsible. But many adults who should know better seem oblivious to the danger. In some zoos, children are actually allowed to pet these reptiles. Just unbelievable.
