Does a komodo dragon eat anything that moves?

No, while Komodo dragons are voracious predators, they are not indiscriminate in their diet. They primarily feed on carrion, scavenging on dead animals they encounter. However, they also actively hunt live prey, including deer, pigs, water buffalo, and even other Komodo dragons. They use their powerful jaws and venomous bite to subdue their victims. Komodo dragons have a unique hunting strategy where they deliver a venomous bite and then track the poisoned prey as it slowly succumbs to the venom's effects. Once the prey is incapacitated, the Komodo dragon consumes it. Despite their reputation as fierce predators, Komodo dragons often rely on patience and opportunistic feeding rather than actively pursuing and attacking anything that moves.
