Re: New info on Komodo Dragons
Eh, guys, I think this stuff is hella old.
I know a guy who is in Fry's team, and they discovered this two years ago or something? I read the several published scientific journal articles. Actually, it's more than just Komodos... most varanids actually!
That's Bearded Dragons, Nile Monitors, Water Monitors, etc. Most varanids are actually venomous, however, the venom isn't that potent and the delivery system is poor.

Re: New info on Komodo Dragons
Beardies are venomous? Beardies are varanids?
I may not be very smart, but what if I am?

Sorry that's right beardies are not varanids, but they are venomous.

I saw it on yahoo news page yesterday, maybe they are just slow in notifying us of this little discovery.
