Vets have determined what killed the Dragon at the St. Augustine Alligator Farm, it was a viral infection. Krakatoa, a 9 year old Komodo Dragon died in August. In the future he was suppose to breed with Tambora the farms 3yo dragon.

viral infection ! does not tell us much …:(
“Krakatoa had minor changes in his spinal cord, which could have been ongoing damage from a viral disease, Heard said. Other signs of neurological damage included some spinal cord lesions and also a weakness in the lizard’s legs, leading Krakatoa to position his legs awkwardly, Heard said.”
Thats all the info they gave, I know its not much. Kinda sounds like MBD to me, what do you think?
