5) Singapore Zoo’s Komodo Dragon Has Been Receiving Acupuncture Treatment
(Original Source, Miami Herald, Singapore- 8/18/03) -An 8-foot-long Komodo dragon lizard in Singapore's zoo has been receiving Chinese acupuncture treatment for a nerve disorder. "Tirto is now more relaxed and is beginning to enjoy his treatments," a spokesman for the Singapore Zoological Gardens, Vincent Tan, said Tuesday.
He said the 8-year-old, 94-pound male lizard, has been receiving twice-weekly treatments for a neurological disorder from veterinarian Oh Soon Hock for the past three weeks.
Tirto had been having problems swallowing and eating. The zoo initially tried steroid treatment, but eventually turned to the ancient traditional treatment still widely used here.
Tirto will also receive antibiotics.
