From the News: Komodo Dragon among six reptiles killed in fire at San Antonio Zoo


I've never had the pleasure of working with Komodos, but I have worked with over a dozen other species of monitor lizards, and have found them to be the most intelligent, most personable, and most charismatic of reptiles.  They are very special animals, and I sympathize very much with the loss and sorrow the the San Antonio keepers must be feeling now.  At least they were able to save many of their other charges.  I hope that they are able to determine the cause of the fire and rebuild - though some animals, like some people, can't be replaced.
