To hunt, it relies on smell. Every time it puts out its tongue, the particles carried in the air are trapped on its two tips. It then places these tips against a special receptor, called Jacobson’s organ, located at the top of the mouth. This analyses the particles and tells the dragon, not only of the presence of the prey, but also in which direction it can be found. Such is the voracity of these animals that the adults do not hesitate to attack the young of the species. To avoid being detected, these cover themselves in faeces to disguise their natural smell, and climb up into the trees, where they will remain until the predator has moved off.
