The presence of the Komodo National Park which is one of popular vote competition nominees " New 7 Wonder " is currently quite inviting allure. The controversy that accompanied the event would have absolutely no effect on intensive efforts to continue to preserve the park in 1986 by UNESCO as a world heritage site .

Komodo is known by the scientific name is Varanus komodoensis world's largest lizard species that live on the islands of Komodo , Rinca , Flores , Gili Mota , and Gili Dasami in Nusa Tenggara . By locals , dragons are often called Ora .
Including members of the lizard family Varanidae , and klad Toxicofera , dragons are the largest lizards in the world , with an average length of 2-3 m . Large size is associated with symptoms of island gigantism , the tendency for body meraksasanya certain animals that live in small island linked to the absence of mammalian carnivores on the island where dragons live , and the rate of metabolism of small dragons . Because of his body , these lizards occupy the position of a top predator that dominate the ecosystems in which they live .
Komodo found in 1910 . Her body is great and terrible reputation makes them popular zoo . Dragons in the wild habitat has shrunk and therefore incorporate dragons IUCN as a species vulnerable to extinction . This large lizard is now protected under Indonesian law and a national park was established to protect them .
