This creature that looks like a beast is the Komodo dragon, which is cruel and cold-blooded, has armor protection on the outside, and has deadly toxins inside, integrating attack and defense, and its combat power is amazing.
If he and the lion tiger crocodile were to go head-to-head, would it be able to take advantage?
This giant cold-blooded reptile, which lives mainly on komodo Island, is the true master, and the methods of hunting prey are extremely cruel and the way of eating food is frightening.
With a sinister and cruel temperament, it not only eats monkeys raw and swallows wild boars alive, but also preys on young species in a hurry, which is very rare in nature.
The so-called tiger poison does not eat children, and the Komodo dragon is more ferocious than the king of the forest in this regard. And it is not afraid of people, and often drives away humans.
Although it is impossible to judge people by their appearance, the fierce appearance of the Komodo dragon makes it difficult for people to think about it well, and to get rid of a beast drilled out of a fantasy novel, which makes people shudder.
The Komodo dragon is a contemporary of the dinosaurs, also known as the Komodo dragon, and is the largest known lizard species. The average body length is 2 to 3 meters, the weight is about 150 kg, and it feeds mainly on carrion.
As a result, the mucus that has been left in its mouth contains dozens of bacteria, leading many people to think that it relies on these bacteria to hunt prey.
Later, it was found that this ancient monitor lizard itself could also secrete deadly venom, so toxic that it could poison the large buffalo that was several times larger than it, and small dishes such as monkey wild boars, as long as they were bitten by the monitor lizard, they would die in a few minutes.
Because of this, it firmly sits on the throne of the top predators in eastern Indonesia. So what are the chances of letting it play in the ring with lions, tigers and crocodiles that are also top predators?
Cruel and cold-blooded Komodo dragon, what is the real combat effectiveness? If you let it go head-to-head with the lion, tiger and crocodile, what are the chances of winning?
Big cats like lions and tigers, most of the way of hunting rely on the brute force, after catching it, they will not let go of their mouths, and use the most skilled throat locking skills until the prey loses its breath.
Compared with this wide-opening and closed predation method, the Komodo dragon's predation method is somewhat sinister and cruel.
Although it has a pair of sharp claws and more than 60 barb-shaped teeth about 2.5 centimeters long, it can easily tear apart the skin and flesh of its prey, but it is not like a lion and tiger, biting its prey deadly, nor does it die and tumble like a crocodile, but slowly consumes the other party with the frightening venom.
After releasing the venom, if the prey struggles fiercely, it will release its mouth, let it escape, and then follow closely behind until the prey dies of poison, and then it will slowly and leisurely come forward to enjoy the food.
Although the Komodo dragon does not run fast, its forked slender tongue is like a precision radar, coupled with a special nasal cavity, it can easily detect prey that has been poisoned within a radius of 10 kilometers.
In addition, Komodo dragons eat very much, and can eat 80% of their own body weight in one meal. And there are no rules when eating, no matter who poisons the food, as long as it can be detected, it is eligible to eat.
So you often see several Komodo dragons huddled together to nibble on carrion.
In the process of grabbing food, adult Komodo dragons often bully young Komodo dragons by being strong. See its thick and long tail, which is its weapon to bully its companions, and it is thrown up like a steel whip.
Komodo dragons eat in a similar way to snakes, swallowing them alive, so they look cruel and disgusting.
Since komodo dragons don't have many taste buds, they can't taste too much, and as long as they can fill their stomachs, any food will not be rejected.
So if the Komodo dragon and the tiger lion crocodile fight each other, how many chances can it win?
Compared to lions, tigers and crocodiles, how effective are the ferocious and brutal Komodo dragons? Can you win by single-handedly?
Since the territory of these top predators does not overlap, it is difficult to have a chance to fight, but we can compete from the predatory means of these several.
Lions are prairie overlords, tigers are forest bosses, and crocodiles are ground snakes in freshwater lakes. In their respective fields, they are all well-deserved big people.
But these three attack methods are all pure physical attacks, the lion and tiger's throat locking skills have long been perfect, coupled with their strong bite force, it is easy to bite off the throat of the prey.
But the Komodo dragon is covered in a layer of hard armor, and it will take a while to bite it, but during this time, the Komodo dragon can attack its opponents with its steel whip-like tail, and once it is given the opportunity to release venom, the final result is likely to be a lose-lose situation.
Therefore, even if the Komodo dragon is slow, the bite force is not good, and the running speed is not fast, it can be invincible with only a magical attack of armor and deadly toxins.
As for the crocodile, its trick is death rolling, but the Komodo dragon's wateriness is also very good, so the crocodile wants to drag it into the water and tear it up. Once the wound is stained with venom in the process of fighting, it can only slowly wait for death.
However, komodo dragons belong to the type of venom that releases venom and sits back, and if it encounters such an unending opponent, it is likely that it will be killed by the prey because it failed to poison the prey on the spot, and finally die together.
So, in some ways, komodo dragons do not have natural predators other than themselves, and of course, humans are excluded.
And it's really a creature of extraordinary ability. Otherwise, it would not have survived on the earth for tens of millions of years without being eliminated. So what animal on earth do you think can put the Komodo dragon in obedience?
