A voracious Komodo dragon made it to the top trends this week after it was caught on camera consuming an entire monkey, nose to tail, in one extended shot. In the video that first surfaced online in 2017, the action unfolds in medias res, with the Komodo dragon having already consumed the top half of the monkey’s body.
The mammal’s legs droop lifelessly from the Komodo dragon’s jaws — probably for the best that it’s unconscious — as the dragon readjusts its toothy grip on its furry meal.
We never quite see the end of the unsettlingly short video, but we can assume the Komodo dragon slurps down the monkey’s tail, like a hirsute strand of spaghetti.
Here is the video below.
