KOMODO DRAGON
On the outside he might look like a scaly oversized lizard. But on the inside he is one of the most deadly creatures on this planet. The komodo dragon is known for killing it's prey in one bite. It's not the teeth, it's not the power of the jaw, it's the bacteria. The mouth of a komodo dragon is one of the most bacteria-filled places on this planet. When the komodo dragon bites another animal and that animal runs away, it will most likely die within a few days. After the komodo dragon bites its prey, the open vulnerable wound gets filled with bacteria from the komodo dragon. Over a few hours, it gets infected. In a few days it will die if left untreated.
