Hi
everyone, today I’m going to talk about my favorite animal. I think it is
really hard to choose just one animal because all they are amazing, but if I
have to choose one, it would we Komodo dragon, which is a kind of giant lizard,
in fact it is the world biggest lizard, they
grow to an average length of 2–3 meters and weigh around 70kg,
which makes people call them “living dinosaurs” or “dragons”.
This
animal like many others is on the verge of extinction, in the case of the Komodo
dragon there are approximately only 5,000 specimens of this variety of lizards,
and the situation is even worse because there
may now be only 352 females having babies in the wild, so it’s very
probably that if this situation continues as it goes right now, in the near future
they may not survive.
Hopefully there are organizations that protect Komodo dragons from illegal
hunting and other kind of destructive circumstances like volcanoes and
earthquakes, one of these organizations is the Komodo National Park located in Indonesia,
which was named as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1991, recognizing the labor
of protects animals in the verge of extinction, in this case in specific Komodo
dragons.
We have to become aware about these kind of problems. I hope you have enjoyed reading see
you again until next time
