Komodo dragon (Varanus komodoensis)

            The Komodo dragon (Varanus komodoensis), also known as the Komodo monitor, is a large species of lizard found in the Indonesian islands of Komodo, Rinca, Flores and  Gili Motang.  A member of the monitor lizard family (Varanidae), it is the largest living species of lizard, growing to a maximum length of 3 metres.
The diet of big Komodo dragons mainly consists of deer, though they also eat considerable amounts of carrion (dead and decaying flesh of an animal). Komodo dragons also occasionally attack humans.  
These dragons were hanging out in the shade of the national park's camp kitchen on Rinca Island.
