Have you seen a Komodo Dragon? / myLot

I didn't realise that there was a Komodo Dragon in the reptile park we visited over the weekend. It had mainly crocs and a few snakes, but this surprised me. It was in a reasonably large open area that was fenced. I loved its textures and colours. It kept flicking it's tongue out. I don't think it was as happy as it would have been in the wild though. Any funky animals you have seen lately?

@pitstop I'm not sure. I think it's like a hobby or collection

I haven't seen one. I don't think we have them in our zoo.

I've only seen a Komodo in the internet, never in person. Haven't met any funky animals lately too.

A komodo dragon is such a cool surprise to find at a reptile park. That tongue flicking thing always gets me, they look so prehistoric. The most funky animal I saw lately was a possum on my fence, it just stared at me like I was the weird one.

Possums are weird creatures. They can scare you in the dark!!

Sometimes it makes me sad to think of animals locked up in a zoo. I have seen a Komodo dragon in person, but only in the zoo. That’s the only where I’ve ever seen a really funky animal.
