Adult Komodo dragons are carnivorous and eat carrion primarily; however, they are capable of attacking, killing, and eating large mammals such as pigs, deer, cattle, and even people, as well as smaller members of their own species. The appetites of juveniles feature smaller prey, including insects, birds and their eggs, and small mammals.
