Distribution

Reference 13 - National Geographic - states: "now live only on five small islands, 300 miles (500 kilometers) east of Bali: Flores, Gili Dasami, Gili Motang, Komodo, and Rinca. Therefore, an authorised editor needs to add Gili Dasami to the distribution. 14.2.192.197 (talk) 10:05, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Oddly there's no distribution section, so it's just in the lead for now. CMD (talk) 15:06, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Some should add the Category:Venomous lizards
