Maybe a child, or defenseless elderly people. The komodo's can't bite large prey to death, they injure it, and wait until it succumbs to blood loss or infections. For days, a week if necessary. That monitor lizard doesn't look like a great biter either, but the claws look ominous.

Nature movie lover like me i take it and yes your right.

komodo dragons killed a small child a few years ago in indonesia i think ....stupid parents were taking a photo and a group of dragons just swarmed over the kid .

Yes, there is a nice BBC documentary on them on youtube.

Looks like people are getting ahead of themselves here,the monitor lizard is a carnivore,it doesn`t have a poisonous bite( you can get an infection if bitten,though).

And it does feed on small,domestic animals if necessary .
