Megalania: The Two Ton Venomous Lizard
The Megalania was the largest lizard ever known, dominating Ice Age Australia as a massive apex predator that could reach lengths of up to seven meters. Closely related to the modern Komodo dragon, it likely had a venomous bite and hunted large megafauna such as giant kangaroos. Its slow metabolism helped it survive extreme environmental changes, but despite its strength and adaptability, the species eventually went extinct, a decline commonly linked to the arrival of humans on the continent.
