what are some monitors that will eat "anything"?

how hard is it to care for them?

are there care sheets?

is it legal to keep komodo dragons/ are they hard to find for sale?

My komodo is awesome.

He is a little whippy and nippy but calms down once you get him out. My daughter rides him sometimes, he doesnt care at all (I'm too big). He broke my friend's jaw with his tail once, that was hilarious. He eats pigs, it gets really expensive and is LOUD. My neighbors freaked out watching this huge lizard chase this pig all over my yard, it was awesome. Great lizard though.

What did you build the enclosure out of? Since komodos are dragons, I would imagine the enclosure would have to be fireproof.

They arent real dragons, those are extinct. I heard that komodos can shoot steam out of their mouth though. Mine never has but I have seen him get all poofy in his throat like he is making steam and then he lets it out slowly, like HISSSSSSSSSSSS. Probably blister you if he wanted. He is tame for me though so he doesnt shoot steam ever.

Can you lay on the floor with your dog and cuddle him under a blanket?

sure if you want your faced ripped off. He is a komodo dragon and he's deadly.
