Imposing and fascinating, the Komodo dragon is the largest living lizard in the world. Native to Indonesia, it can measure up to 3 meters long and weigh more than 70 kilos. Its forked tongue allows it to detect odors several kilometers away, making it a formidable hunter.
The Komodo dragon feeds primarily on carrion, but it can also attack live prey such as deer or buffalo. Surprisingly, its saliva contains numerous bacteria, and its venom weakens its prey, making it a unique predator. Despite its prehistoric reptile appearance, it is capable of running quickly over short distances and even swimming between islands.
This Papo figurine is a stunningly realistic reproduction of the Komodo dragon, featuring detailed scales, a massive silhouette, and a forked tongue ready to unfurl. A must-have piece to complete a wildlife collection, create exciting stories, or educate children about the astonishing diversity of reptiles.
