Megalania was the largest land lizard ever to live in Australia and possibly the world It is closely related to modern goannas, but much larger Its maximum length was approximately 5.5 metres, its weight about 600 kilograms, so it was twice the length of the Komodo Dragon
Megalania was so similar to goannas that palaeontologists have changed its scientific name to Varanus, the scientific name for the modern goannas Recent research shows that Megalania was also venomous
Megalania was the largest carnivore to have lived in Australia during the last two million years
It would have ambushed its prey, which possibly included the rhinoceros-sized Diprotodon optatum, and then torn it to pieces using its very large claws and serrated curved teeth
Megalania probably also scavenged for food, feasting on dead animals it located with its keen sense of smell
