Varanus komodoensis Ouwens, 1912
Komodo dragon

These large lizards, which grow to a maximum of about 3m long (about 10 feet) do not naturally occur on Bali, although they may have in the past when they were more widespread. Now they are restricted to the Indonesian islands of Komodo, Rinca, Flores and Gili Motang. This one was penned up at the Bali Bird Park.
