That's not a komodo dragons,that's a monitor lizard,and yes they do bite,its a nature reserve,how can they be in cages?that would be contradicting the fact that it's a nature reserve,lol

no, they are quite harmless, unless you do things like catch hold of their tails or go too close.

ha ha ha,no la,if you look close enough,you can see a whole load of diffences between the 2,i see a lot of videos,komodo dragons always drool ,besides,komodo dragons only found on the island of komodo in indonesia if i'm not wrong,and they grow up to 3m long,lol,they don't chase for nothing,had the opportunity to take one about 2m away before,close enough for it to chase and bite me if it wanted to,but since i'm bigger,they rather run away,like all animals,they don't bite unless provoked,maybe some chase man for food,although very seldom,even great white sharks are man eaters,but apparently,they don't like the taste of humans,they just mistake divers for seals cause of the flippers,

Yes, the Kingfisher picture was a quite blur. But had to take it - seldom see a threesome playing together.

Those Monitor Lizs are quite afraid of humans. Can't really get close to them to have a close up shot even with a 300mm. Only managed to take #1 from 2m away lying on my front and crawling up to it bit at a time.
