* There are over 3,000 lizard species, but the Komodo dragon wins the prize for being the biggest living lizard in the world! It is a type of monitor lizard, an ancient species of reptile with ancestors that date back more than 100 million years. These large lizards have stubby, bowed legs, clay-colored, scaly skin for great camouflage, and a huge, muscular tail. The yellow color of the Komodo's long, forked tongue reminds people of mythical dragons that spit fire!
