Komodo dragons live on several islands in the middle of the Indonesian archipelago.

Our Natural World programme looks at how and why dragons evolved their venomous bite. The story took us to Indonesia, Holland and Australia.

We filmed the dragons on the beautiful island of Rinca. A little known fact about the Komodo dragon - the first expedition to bring back live dragons to New York became the inspiration for the movie King Kong.
