Betty White posing with one of the 22 Komodos recently hatched at the Los Angeles Zoo.
She’s a trustee of the Greater Los Angeles Zoo Association.
I know what happens now – I’ve seen it in Lake Placed.
She’s gonna raise them on bread bits until they’re old enough to go after full-sized cows and people.
…and eventually Lou Grant.
I thought this was going to be something else, like Betty wrestling a bunch of Komodos.
Make her an offer.
Isn’t the komodo dragon the huge creature that bites his prey with bacteria-ridden teeth so that it eventually dies of sepsis, after which he feasts upon its decayed corpse?
Oooh, komodo dragon eggs!
Where’s a mongoose when you need one?
If they don’t grow up in their habitat, do they still get all the horrible bacteria?
According to that article, no. They get fed clean food so they don’t get all the nasty bacteria in their mouths.
And they have to brush their teeth, too. That’s zoo policy.
Mike Rowe: “Today on Dirty Jobs, I’ll be brushing a dragon’s teeth…and after smelling his breath, I almost wish he could breathe fire instead.”
Sharon Stone’s husband got his toe bitten off by a Komodo Dragon at the Los Angeles Zoo.
I don’t see a bright future for Betty.
She’s 88. Nobody sees a bright future for her.
I said that out loud, didn’t I?
Currently the jury is out as to whether they also have venom. Apparently glands analogous to venom glands have been identified, but there’s dispute over whether that actually means venom is produced.

I can still say this at lightening speed! I learned it in 9th grade, fom an old Bob & Ray skit. 
Let’s leave Betty in the cage and find out.
