What are komodo hunting habits?

Komodo dragons are opportunistic carnivores and primarily hunt large prey, including deer, wild boar, and even smaller dragons. They use a combination of stealth and powerful bursts of speed to ambush their victims, relying on their keen sense of smell to locate food from miles away. Once they capture their prey, they use their strong jaws and serrated teeth to inflict deep wounds, often allowing bacteria in their saliva to weaken the animal before it succumbs. After a successful hunt, they can eat large quantities of meat, sometimes consuming up to 80% of their body weight in a single meal.
