The komodo dragons are also capable of diving up to 4.5 meters deep.

This species is also an excellent swimmer they can even swim between islands. We know komodo dragons actively move on hills These questions still need to be further investigated. What if the effects of global warming can be reduced drastically? If the sea level actually rise, could it reduce the dragon’s population? This decrease could reduce the lizard’s population by between 27-99%. The study predicts that the komodo dragon’s habitat could decrease by around 8-87% by 2050. Using modelling and spatial analysis, the study analysed the correlation between subsequent sea-level rise and the komodo dragon habitat. This risk is based on a study published in July 2020. However, the komodo dragon’s recent assessment seems to be based on an assumption: the risk of sea-level rise caused by global warming. Some questions would undoubtedly come up: is there a genetic change? Is there excessive poaching or habitat encroachment? Has their habitat been reduced?Įxperts from all over the world will discuss all of those questions with strong scientific evidence. In my experience assessing various species, Endangered status is decided with stringent criteria.
