Dragons do not only populate the myths and legends of the past, but also the world around us. 

Zoology PhD student Tom Jameson takes us on a journey of discovery with the world's largest reptiles.

Learn how Komodo dragons play an important role in regulating and managing the ecosystems in which they occur, and how without them the whole ecosystem is at risk: HERE BE DRAGONS!
