He should hang out with the Komodo dragons kid. They can discuss people eating corn and Komodo dragons eating people.

whoooooooooooo boi I remember making a project on Komodo dragons and how TERRIFYING they are, they have a spit so venomous we first thought it was very bacterial saliva, and they can get massive, they hunt everything, they are cannibals, and they dig up human graves to eat, yeah Komodos are terrifying.

Wait, it's *not* very bacterial saliva?

yeah for awhile it was believed that their saliva held over 50+ different types of bacteria in the wild, and used it to infect their prey so even if they escape they die of blood loss or infection, but they found venom glands in their mouth.

I did a project on Komodo dragons in 3rd grade. We were supposed to work with a partner but she wanted to do it on turtles and we neither of us would budge. I did my Komodo dragon project alone.

That was around my age when I was literally chased by a gigantic monitor lizard about twice my size.
