A Komodo Dragon attacks a stubborn tourist

Komodo dragons which are native to Indonesia are the world's largest lizards and they are venomous in nature and their bite is life threatening.


A tourist from Singapore,Lon Lee Alle who is 52 deliberately ignored warnings from park rangers not to get too close to the Komodo.He was however bitten on his left leg when he tried taking a selfie with the animal.

Sudiyono,who is the Komodo National Park chief in a statement said:

''A Komodo doesn't like to be disturbed when eating.He must have been too close,the tourist had stayed with locals for three days to save costs.

''Never risk your safety by staying with locals and watching Komodo dragons without an official guide for the sake of your budget.''

After sustaining the injury,he was quickly rushed by military speed boat to a nearby medical facility.He is however responding to treatment.
