The eastern Indonesian island Komodo is proving a hit with adventurous tourists eager to have a look at the world’s largest lizard(蜥蜴)species(种类). The island is the home of the huge lizard called the Komodo dragon.
A later species of the Jurassic(侏罗纪)period dinosaurs 130 million years ago, the Komodo dragon is in danger and has been placed under protection by the Indonesian government.
The local people who show great respect for the species call the huge lizard “Buaya Darat”. Tales handed down over generations of islanders speak of the dragon warning people of getting close to this kind of animal.
The animal can reach a length of three meters when fully grown, gain a weight of about 135 kilograms and may live to an age of about 100 years. It digs a hole in the ground as deep as 9 meters and lay eggs – up to 30 at a time – that hatch in April or May. The newly hatched lizards, about 45 centimeters long, live in trees for several months.
Komodo dragon has been known to eat smaller members of the species and sometimes even other grown – ups. The Komodo dragon was first discovered in 1912 by a group of fishermen who protected themselves from a storm in the Banda Sea on the island.
Various species of the Komodo dragon are also found in Asia, Australia and Africa, but it is only on Komodo and western tip of the neighboring Island of Flores that they grow up to three meters long.
