Located in Flores, East Nusa Tenggara, Komodo National Park covers five major islands, namely Komodo, Padar, Rinca, Gili Motang and Nusa Kode.

Kompas.com reports that there are only around 3,000 Komodo dragons in the national park, which has led Komodo dragons to be listed as an endangered species. Currently, Komodo dragons can be found on four islands, which include Komodo, Rinca, Gili Motang and Nusa Konde. (jes/kes)
