Raja the Komodo dragon

Raja the Komodo Dragon

Adopt Raja, ZSL's beautiful but deadly Komodo dragon.

Raja is actually very sociable for a Komodo dragon, a species that generally prefer solitary life.

He’s a bit like a big dog - potentially very dangerous but great with his ‘family’.

Try and spot him in his enclosure, he's normally very still.

By adopting Raja for yourself or as a gift, you will be directly supporting ZSL’s conservation work.

Adoption packs are £32

These are posted out in an attractive presentation folder which contains: a welcome letter with fun facts about your animal, personalised certificate, one free zoo ticket, Wild About magazine and a photograph of your animal. (The price includes delivery)
