Komodo Dragon Fact

So I was just watching a documentary on Komodo Dragons and I found out that the females can actually have eggs and they can hatch with out the fertilizing of a male. This is crazy to me because everyone always says it takes two to keep going, but this is the total opposite of this theory.







"scientists have documented a virgin birth. Actually, what they describe is two such births by Komodo dragons (Varanus komodoensis) in captivity. The births occurred in zoos that lacked male Komodo dragons, the largest of the lizards." 

I think its crazy that this can happen, and if it starts happening in the wild (if it hasen't) we will soon have tons of Komodo Dragons!
