Komodo Dragon on Display at Henry Doorly Zoo

komodo-dragonA Komodo dragon is now on display at Omaha’s Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium.

Officials say the Komodo dragon is on display at the zoo’s Cat Complex.

The Komodo dragon was hatched at the San Antonio Zoo in 2007. It was raised at the Houston Zoo before being transferred to Omaha in November.

Komodo dragons are native to a handful of small islands in Indonesia. They are listed as vulnerable on the International Union for Conservation of Nature’s Red List due to overhunting of red deer, their main source of food.
