His big body and terrible reputation make them popular at the zoo. The habitat of dragons in the wild has dwindled by human activity and hence IUCN incorporates Komodo as a species susceptible to extinction. The large lizard is now protected under Indonesian government regulations and a national park, Komodo National Park, was established to protect them.
