Most Komodo dragons live on small islands near water in Indonesia.Most live in grassy lands.There are a lot of people that destroy Komodo dragons’ habitats so there are not a lot of Komodo dragons left. Komodo dragons make burrows to cool down. Some Komodo dragons swim to other islands because people destroy their islands.

To escape the heat Komodo dragons use their sharp claws to dig deep burrows to cool down.

I am hot I am going to cool  down in my burrow.

People in Indonesia: Their homes are built high so Komodo dragons can’t hurt them.

When Komodo dragons bite their prey they can often lose teeth. They can grow 200 teeth back in a year.

People in Indonesia build their houses up high so they are safe from Komodo dragons.

Scientists believe Komodo dragons are related to a type of lizards that lived 100 million years ago.

Komodo dragons are fast. They can sprint up to 12 miles per hour.

Komodo dragons lay 20 to 40 eggs in case some don’t make it. When they hatch they have no mother and father to take care of them so they climb trees to stay safe.
