      I think is the Komodo dragon(Varanus komodoensis) a large species of lizard found in the Indonesian islands. It is the largest living species of lizard, growing to a maximum length of 3 metres (10 ft) in rare cases and weighing up to approximately 70 kilograms (150 lb). Scary animal!

      Birds are dinosaurs! I kid you not: birds evolved from dinosaurs 😀

      The birds are actually dinosaurs. The only dinosaurs to survive to this day.
