Father of Mario and Taro, and one of the oldest Komodo dragons in human care. He weighs in at a hefty 73 kg.
Mario is Bima's firstborn and the first Komodo dragon to be successfully hatched in Asia, outside of Indonesia.
Mario's younger brother. He's the smallest of the three, but this growing boy has a huge appetite.
As with many reptiles, one of the challenges in breeding Komodo dragons is the difficulty of telling males from females without DNA tests or ultrasound scans. After 34 years of caring for Komodo dragons, we celebrated our first-ever hatching in 2009. and we've been successfully breeding them since.
Wild Komodos are on the decline due to a dearth of egg-laying females, poaching and human encroachment. We hope to help ensure their future survival through our breeding efforts.
