Komodo dragons, native to Indonesia's Lesser Sunda Islands, are the largest living lizards in the world, growing up to 10 feet (3 meters) long and weighing as much as 200 pounds (91 kilograms). They are apex predators that use their sharp teeth, powerful jaws, and venomous saliva to take down prey, including deer, pigs, and water buffalo. Despite their ferocity, Komodo dragons are listed as vulnerable to extinction by the International Union for Conservation of Nature due to habitat loss, poaching, and natural disasters.
