Komodo dragons are indeed dangerous animals due to several factors. They have sharp claws, strong jaws, and a venomous bite, making them formidable predators. Although they generally avoid humans and attacks are rare, they can be aggressive if provoked or threatened. Their venom lowers blood pressure and prevents blood clotting, causing victims to weaken rapidly, and their saliva contains harmful bacteria that can lead to severe infections. Komodo dragons can also run fast and are skilled hunters, capable of taking down large prey like water buffalo. Overall, while they do not actively hunt humans, they can pose a serious risk if approached recklessly or if they feel threatened.
