Best Answer

A Komodo dragon will run down its prey (usually medium to large mammals), just like many predatory mammals do. Like a predatory mammal, they also prefer to run after prey that is injured, weak, young, or sick (they're easier to catch up to). They bite their prey, and then let it go. A Komodo dragon's saliva is full of deadly bacteria, and their bitten prey soon succumbs to infection. The dragon then uses its forked tongue to 'sniff out' where its prey has gone, and chow down.

Sometimes many dragons will converge on one kill. If there is plenty to eat, they may all tear in at once - sometimes fighting ensues, though!

Why is a komodo dragon food chain not a food chain?

A Komodo dragon is a predator at the top of its food chain, so it is not considered a food chain in itself.
