I was in Bali, and was offered a trip to see the Komodo dragons. I'd seen old pictures of tourists standing around a pit full of Komodos while they lowered a goat down, and declined.
Oh no! I was told. That's all outdated. Now the Komodos live on an island set aside as a nature preserve - they have free roam. Our guide will take you over there and hike you around looking for them in their natural environment. He's very good - he'lll go shake the bushes to drive them out so you can get good pictures.
So...dragon lunch, basically. They wanted me to be dragon lunch. Eff that.
