Info from Licensor: "When we arrived at the komodo dragon enclosure, a squirrel fell into the enclosure. It thumped off the glass, landed on the ground, stunned, and then hid in a bamboo thicket in the middle of the enclosure. The dragon quickly came from the back of the enclosure, where it had been, and started hunting the squirrel in the thicket. It climbed into the thicket and captured the squirrel, emerging with the rodent in its jaws. The squirrel briefly escaped, but the dragon quickly captured it again and killed it. After holding its prey for awhile in its jaws, the dragon swallowed it whole." - David Ostdiek
