Baby Komodo Dragons Born At The Memphis Zoo




They may be cute, but watch out, they are mean and fast right from the start. They have to be or momma might eat them as soon as they hatch!

Thirteen eggs hatched out of a brood of 16 at the Memphis Zoo. The first baby emerged from his shell on January 2. This was the first birth at the Memphis Zoo this year. All 13 babies have been promised to other zoos so it's unlikely that these babies will be seen by the public before they are shipped off.
