It is an endangered species and they are living on only a few islands in the South Pacific. It was not called the Komodo dragon until an American adventurer used that name in the 1920's. The Komodo Dragon is an interesting animal that has razor-sharp teeth and poisonous saliva and eats up to 80% of its own body weight in a single meal. The primary prey for adult dragons is the Sunda deer, but they also eat birds, snakes, fish, crabs, snails, small mammals, pigs, water buffalo, eggs, wild horses and younger Komodos.

#343 — A scenic picture of two giraffes taken in the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle, Washington. Giraffes are an African ruminant mammal living in open savannas of the Sahara. The giraffe is the tallest of animals and browse in treetops at heights inaccessible to other leaf-eaters. A male can grow up to be 18 ft (5.5 m) from hoof to crown. Giraffes feed chiefly on leaves of acacia and mimosa, using their extensible tongues and mobile lips to secure food. Giraffes can become very vulnerable when spreading their forelegs and lowering their heads to drink; however, they can do without water for long intervals.
