🐉Komodo dragons are the largest, heaviest lizards in the world — and one of the few with a venomous bite. 👅These stealthy, powerful hunters rely on their sense of smell to detect food, using their long, forked tongues to sample the air. 👋Meet our komodo dragon, Murphy, at the Reptile Discovery Center! ❤️🐲 Love komodo dragons? Cuddle with one (in toy form) when you adopt a species! HELP CONSERVE DRAGONS: https://s.si.edu/2XT5MFY. | Smithsonian’s National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute
