In Indonesia, a fisherman trespassing in the Komodo National Park was attacked by a Komodo dragon. A Komodo Dragon is the heaviest lizard in the world. It could grow up to 3 meters and they have a toxic bite that they use to kill their prey. These lizards can eat big animals like buffalos.
Fisherman, Muhamad Anwar, bled to death on the way to a clinic after he was biten by a komodo dragon while looking for a sugar-apple, a type of fruit. The area was closed because of the wild Komodo dragons.
