The Komodo Dragon: A Deadly Predator

When a Komodo bites its prey, the venom quickly disrupts blood pressure, slows blood clotting, and causes infections that can kill the prey in a short time. One way the Komodo uses its venom is by biting its prey and then letting it escape, allowing the venom to work slowly within the prey's body and eventually kill it within hours. So, Komodo venom isn't a myth—it's a real and effective weapon.
