Komodo dragons are carnivores, meaning they eat meat. They are such fierce hunters they can eat very large prey, such as large water buffalo, deer, carrion, pigs and even humans. They will also eat smaller dragons.
The monitor lizard can see objects as far away as 980 feet, but because its retinas only contain cones, it is thought to have poor night vision.
