Komodo dragons are top predators in their habitat, preying on animals like deer, wild boar, and water buffalo. Their powerful jaws and venomous bite make them formidable hunters.
Komodo dragons use stealth and patience to ambush their prey. They have a keen sense of smell to detect animals from far away. Once close enough, they launch a swift attack.
