Komodo dragons: the biggest, worst lizard of the modern day Helen Sullivan

Elias Agas, 46, was whisked off Rinca Island by speedboat after the colossal lizard tore several parts of his body, last Wednesday. Upon receiving this information, fellow rangers … were at the location immediately [and] managed to evacuate the victim, the park s head of security Julius Buki said.
The £4.8 million resort which is being marketed as a real-life version of Stephen Spielberg s fictional dinosaur park has sparked concern among conservationists.
A widely-shared photo earlier this month showed a Komodo dragon facing off with a truck in a muddy clearing of the jungle on Rinca Island
