I am an Aussie and having visited America and Europe, most zoos there are well run there too thankfully from what I saw., Though I only went to the really famous ones like the San Diego and Berlin zoos.. The former is one of my favourites zoo too. We do have excellent zoos that are definitely worth seeing. Taronga in Sydney and Melb's zoo are both superb and really easy to visit too.... which usually isn't the case down here. 😆
You have an awesome job! I want to take a dragon for a walk! He is such a well behaved dragon! They are monsters out in the wild! I figured he would be a jerk like a captive Nile monitor. I have a Savanah monitor that has a great personality. I got him as a baby and he's 5 years old now. He liked to hiss and tail whip when he was younger, now he thinks he's human. Keep up the great work with him! He's nicer than most people I know.
You all are truly amazing and inspirational men and women. Much love from upstate New York USA!! I idolize Tim Faulkner and would love to meet you all someday. Absolutely gorgeous Komodo Dragon.
I noticed I felt none of the negativity associated with the taming of a wild animal, nor the training of one. This video teaches and fascinates. Major accomplishment. Thanks
1. Wild Komodo dragons prefer basking as they are cold-blooded animals. Komodos can cover long distances when walking in search of food or chasing their prey. They can run at speeds of up to 20 km/h for short distances. 2. Komodo dragons can grow up to 3 meters in length and weigh 70 kg (the highest recorded weight is 100 kg). 3. Komodo dragons scratch their faces to remove mucus, which is expelled along with the remnants of their food (such as nails, teeth, bones, furry skin, and horns). This is a common behavior in the wild to get rid of the unpleasant smell coming from the mucus. 4. In Komodo National Park on Komodo Island, the residents, government, and other organizations do not feed the Komodo dragons. Komodos are left to live freely in the wild and hunt on their own. This is why Komodos are known as apex predators, which exhibit cannibalistic tendencies, especially towards smaller Komodos, as the smaller ones can become prey for the larger, adult Komodos. To maintain the habitat's population balance, residents allow livestock (goats) to be hunted by the Komodos. Komodos have two phases of life. After hatching, they will seek trees to dwell in until they mature enough to descend from the trees. This marks the second phase of their adult life. Those are some *facts* outlining the differences between the Komodo dragon and the Komodo Lizard shown in the video.
Great look at Krakens routine, I just wondered, does he retain the toxins in his saliva, as I believe in the wild the toxic effect is diet based? If so do you structure his diet to retain or eliminate some or all toxicity? And I love his daily walks, has anyone thought to allow him to take a bite of a fresh kill then whisk the bloody carcass away leaving a trail of blood he could follow through the park to find his meal, just like in the wild...probably not family friendly for guests come to think of it!!
Interestingly, the comodo dragon's legs are as thick as the man' arms and legs. So, it looks like both are about equally strong, required the dragon is adult.
no animal is "evil" as long as they are not threatened and well-fed they are all sweethearts at heart. People just don't know what "threatening behavior" is, or doesn't know the warning signs.
Media: Komodo dragons are extremely dangerous, they will kill you with a single bite.
This Komodo dragon: I'm a doggo, lol, woof woof.
well sharon stone husban got bitten and didnt got poisoned or something
fr, i feel sory for komodo, that isn't komodo dragon, that is komodo lizard
I had pet a Komodo here Indonesia :)

I could not stop myself from yelling : "release the kraken!!!" ... Evertime i take him out for a walk lol

Is it just me, or does Australia do a particularly good job with their Zoos?

Australia is a zoo
I mean it's Australia 😄
What a lovely animal! Surprisingly dainty for such a big lizard!
Why does the Komodo dragon look so cute
Monitor lizards are my favorite how puppy dog they can become

Thank you for caring so well for your animals. Those are the only kinds of animal parks I want to see

G'day Dan,
It is Amazing the Bond all the ARP Staff have with the Residents
Omg it's like a big dog 😂 emagine your local chihuahua starting on this monster lmao
a komodo dragon on a leash is strangely adorable.
It proves they can be domesticated 🥰
I'll never have a dragon for a pet....but if he was like Kraken, I would seriously consider it. What a handsome boy!! Thanks! 😂❤❤❤❤❤
Pls keep these videos coming.

I’m sure Kraken is well fed which is why he won’t chase the duck. He has the good life.
Seeing a dragon on a leash sent me 😂
He know he is the 🌟 and get the food
DAAWWWWW THE SKRUNKLY!
I’m glad that Kraken didn’t make off with the kids
I can’t wait to see what else you have

KOMODO DRAGON... INDONESIA 🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩❤❤❤❤

How did you guys get the name KRAKEN?
Is it possible to socialize a komodo after it reaches adulthood? What are the techniques used to socialize babies?
They can be domesticated
what an interesting dog you have there!
This dragon so quite
How do you calm it down?
as far as I know this Komodo dragon is dangerous and ferocious
No one can tame it
no animal is "evil" as long as they are not threatened and well-fed they are all sweethearts at heart.
People just don't know what "threatening behavior" is, or doesn't know the warning signs.
If not fren, then why fren-shaped?
i think its tuka the komodo dragon
amigável
Komodos used to live in Australia along with megalania they should reintroduce Komodos in Australia
