The Komodo dragon is the biggest lizard in the whole world. It can grow longer than a car! Komodo dragons live on a few small islands in a country called Indonesia.
Komodo dragons have rough, scaly skin, sharp claws, and strong tails. They have a long, forked tongue that they flick in and out of their mouth. Komodo dragons can weigh as much as a grown-up person!

- Even though they are very big, Komodo dragons can run fast when they need to.
- They can smell food from miles away using their special tongue.
