My Favorite Animal

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
