New Pet Komodo

[expansa1]

Hi,
Here is a couple of pics of my new pet Komodo Dragon!
Nah, I wish! It was taken some time back at Taronga Zoo! You could put him to sleep by rubbing his eyes which he loved immensely!
Cheers!

Yeah, it used to come up to Terry Boylan and it would sit there half asleep as he'd rub it's eyes.

No I visited him regularly and he was a gentle giant! I trusted him more than I trust most pythons!

A work mate just recently gave me a pic of that same dragon and i owe him an apology as i didn't believe his eye rubbing story.

Thats unreal....I was always thought they were really aggresive and would take a chunk out of you at every opportunity...
I'm being impressed just about every day lately

No It wasn't Kevin! It was an Indonesian name, Suka or Suki or something like that! Everyone called him baby though!

He is very nice but I don't think I would try putting him to sleep rubbing his eye's, I would be to worried about him taking the hand off lol

Thats unreal. komodos are so fascinating i think.......about from the fact that their mouth googe is full of bacteria that can break down tissue......not to sure if i'd be that close.

That is awsome. Komodos are so beautiful, I would love to have one in my back yard.

Got any more pics?

You maybe thinking of Keith, who died many years ago, was mounted, and now lives on the back verandah of a friend of mine.
