Komodo monitors inhabit areas that are commonly hot and dry for much of the year, but are subjected to a short monsoon season during which most of the year's 35 inches of rain occurs. Preferred vegetation can vary from dry open grasslands and savannas, to tropical forests at lower elevations. Habits and Adaptations :: Young monitors are well adapted to their arboreal life where their coloration is a useful camouflage and the slender body, long tail and sharp claws enable them to move through the trees. As they become older, the coloration changes as does the body confirmation and many of the daily habits. They eventually become terrestrial where they become more interactive with other Komodos and change feeding habits to larger prey and carrion.

But if you ever wish to test your dedication to all things schlockfilmic, might we suggest Komodo The thing about Komodo dragons is that despite their bitchin' moniker, they're not really on the Top Ten List Of Scary Animals That Might Show Up In A Horror Movie. In fact, you'd have to search pretty hard to find someone who would even consider the noble Komodo dragon for his list of phobias, especially when compared to bats, rats, spiders, lions, dogs, and all those other fearsome animals to which we have had more exposure. The irony here is that Komodo dragons are among the worst of predators with which you might want to find yourself in actual contact: they can grow as large as 10 feet long and weigh over 300 pounds, and have been known to kill humans occasionally. Most of us are simply unaware of these facts because the Komodos are a relatively rare species which live only on a few Indonesian islands. A woman, some guns and a dead body.

Komodo dragons, like other reptiles, show no evidence of evolution from non-reptiles. Crystal Clear Creation: Unlock the secrets of nature, wildlife, the world, from a creationist, Christian, non-evolution perspective. Quick-read this article: Komodo dragons are the largest lizards on earth today. There is evidence from fossils that lizards from the group to which komodos belong were even larger in the past. But there is no evidence that they ever evolved from non-reptiles. Fearsome-looking komodo dragons live on only four islands in the world. All four islands are among the 13,670 islands that make up the Republic of Indonesia in South-East Asia. Many historians think the well-known depictions of Chinese dragons were modelled on creatures like the Komodo dragon. The Komodo's long, forked, yellow-orange tongue flicks out of its mouth like wisps of fire. Komodos are the largest lizards on earth today. They can grow to three meters (10 feet) long, although the biggest and most savage-looking specimens were slaughtered before the Indonesian Government set up its current protection policy. Komodos are a species of monitor lizard. Monitors include the Australian goanna, a lizard similar to the Komodo dragon but which rarely reaches lengths of more than two meters (six feet).

World Wonders Atlas Wildlife Celebrities ... WonderClub.com KOMODO DRAGON At 10 feet in length, the Komodo dragon is the largest true lizard that has ever lived on land. It is the top predator on the small islands on which it lives. HABITS The small Idonesian islands on which the Komodo dragon lives are hilly and sparsely covered with rainforest. The lowland areas consist mainly of open grassland and palm tress. Despite their small size, these islands support a wide range of subtropical plants and animals. BREEDING Komodo dragons mate in late June or July. During this period, males may come into conflict with each other as they defend their territories. Five weeks after mating, the female digs a hole in the warm, moist earth and an average of a dozen eggs. The exact number and size of the eggs she lays vary depending on the age and size of the female. She then covers them and leaves them to incubate unattended, relying on the sum to keep them at the proper temperature. The young dragons hatch eight months later. Barely eight inches long, they are in danger of being eaten by almost every predator on the islands, from snakes and birds of prey to larger Komodo dragons. Those that survive grow quickly, and after five years, they will have reached six feet in length. Both males and females are mature enough to breed at around six years of age.

The Komodo dragon is the world's largest flesh-eating lizard and living reptile. This amazing creature is only found in the wild on four small Indonesian islands, where they are vulnerable to disease, volcanic activity, and competition with feral dogs and man. It lives on the islands of Komodo, Rinca, Padar, and Flores. The Komodo is an endangered species and there are only about 5,000 of them in existence around the world, including a small number kept and bred in zoos. While Komodos like to eat dead things, they also prey on wild pigs, water buffalo and deer. They have a huge capacity for food, often eating up to half of their body weight in one meal. They are also cannibalistic, sometimes eating their own kind. They eat almost all of a carcass, consuming flesh, skin and even bones. A large Komodo can swallow a whole wild pig; their jaws expand like a snake's.

Black-bearded Flying Lizard Common Flying Dragon Komodo Dragon Kuhl's Flying Gecko ... John Sullivan Common Flying Dragon Scientific Name Draco volans Alternative Name : Common Gliding Lizard Location : Southeast Asia History : This lizard's name is a misnomer, as the creature cannot fly. Instead, this lizard glides with the use of a wide flap of skin called the patagium, which is supported by elongated ribs. They can, however, travel great distances during their glide, roughly five meters for every meter they descend. When not in flight, these creatures can simply fold their wings like a fan and appear somewhat more like normal lizards. Males have a yellow skin flap under their throats which they flap during mating season to attract females. Females have a blue colored one, which has black speckles on it.

Home About Us Members Rules Ranks Forums Links Challenge Us Join Us ... Comments The History of Clan DeadlyStrike Intro Part 1: The First War This story starts out back in the summer of '03 when I first started playing BF: 1942 online. I was on the default 1.31 patch, which was an older version that not many people played on. There were no server admins, no vote kick, nothing to enforce server rules. So the 1.31ers were basically free to do whatever they pleased. I had no idea about clans and what they did. I thought a clan was a bunch of people who walked around together for the whole game. There were not many clans around those days, and the ones that were around weren't very big. The ones I can remember are the Kamikaze Clan, the Wingfly Clan, the SilentKills (SK) Clan, and later the Bounty Hunter (BH) clan. I played online a lot and became good at it, and I got to know some of the people who played on the 1.31 regularly (since it was very small it was easy to get to know people). One day while playing on some server with the Gazala Map, I became friends with a few people there. Two of them were Milorg and Bounty, the leader of clan BH. He asked me and Milorg to join so we did. I did not really know what to do but then Bounty told me to put the [bounty hunter] clan tag after my name and I was in. After being in the clan for a few weeks, clan BH became the biggest clan in all the 1.31. Whenever you went on one of the few servers there, over half the players were in BH. No one knew exactly how many Bounty Hunters there were, but some people estimate there was around 250 to 300 or more. Not everyone liked us, but they were in no place to mess with us because we had too many members. So other clans and players respected us.

They lose the sinousness and replace it with a robust build laced with powerful muscles and thick skin. The beautiful colours that adorn them as hatchlings, are replaced by a brown to reddish grey that covers most of the body. Some individuals have dark black limbs and adults also tend to have a peach yellow colour around the eyes. A yellow tongue is common to both adults and juveniles (a tongue colour unique to V.komodoensis Size Dragon size has been a subject of much exaggeration, with some reports stating that the animals could grow to a whopping 7 meters (23ft), but no such dragon has yet been verified.

Bog Turtle The bog turtle is the smallest species of turtle found in North America. The average adult measures under 4-inches-long. Though still found in the wild, the bog turtle is seriously threatened due to habitat destruction and poaching. Bog turtles are protected in every state where they occur. The bog turtle was listed by the World Wildlife Fund in 1993 as one of the 10 most endangered species in the world, due to their "medicinal" value on the international market. Zoo Atlanta works with the DNR to propagate the bog turtle and reintroduce them into protected native habitats.

Komodo Dragons! Our two dragons are called Awas and Naga. Awas is the Bahasa Indonesian word for "Beware." The keepers at Reptile Gardens named him Awas because when he lived at the Tampa Zoo he bit a keeper and almost removed his thumb. Naga is the Bahasa Indonesian word for "Dragon." Komodo Dragon Varanus komodoensis Komodo Dragons were first described by Western scientists in 1912. These huge lizards are found on the Indonesian islands of Komodo, Flores, Padar, and Rinca. It is believed they arrived at the smaller islands of Padar and Rinca by swimming as they are strong swimmers. The government has long been very protective of their dragons and has let only small numbers of them leave the country over the years. It takes a Presidential decree to get them out of Indonesia. There are approximately 5000 dragons in the wild. Due to their highly specialized husbandry requirements, Komodo Dragons have been successfully maintained in captivity only for the past decade. There are approximately 50 in the United States, many of which are the result of captive breeding programs at several American zoos. Their diet is listed as rodents, fish, snakes, wild goats and pigs, and deer. However, they will pretty much eat whatever they can catch or get a good bite into, which includes a foolhardy tourist when the opportunity arises.
