I have heard of the existence of hybrids between addax and various oryx species, as well as between Bactrian and Dromedary camels, but pictures of...
That's good to hear. I think dragons are more abundant on Rinca as well, though they tend to be smaller. In any case, it'll probably be open by...
Apparently it'll close for at least a year soon because people are smuggling dragons out of nearby Flores.
1. Indonesia (Komodo, assuming the national park ever reopens). 2. Australia. 3. United States. 4. Singapore. 5. UK. Australia, Singapore and...

So last month I've come across a guy on YouTube who thinks that volcanoes, geysers, tornadoes, and a whole heap of exotic animals (like Komodo...
