Komodo Dragon vs Python

Komodo Dragon vs Python Who Will Win?

It rather depends - on the size of each animal. Certainly a full-grown Reticulated python at around 10 meters could overpower a Komodo dragon IF - it got in the first strike.

Snake reflexes are super-fast - and assuming the python ‘hit’ first, the dragon would be wrapped in the snake’s coils in milliseconds. As soon as the dragon exhaled - the coils tighten, preventing the ‘prey’ from breathing. They do not ‘crush’ their prey (breaking bones) - they asphyxiate (preventing breathing).

The dragon would normally grab a prey animal in a strong bite - then let go… allowing the bacteria in it’s saliva to kill the snake over a number of days.
