Komodo dragons are one of the only animals able to reproduce without male fertilisation. Zoo keepers first discovered this in 2007, when a dragon gave birth even though there were no males in her enclosure. Chris Michaels, head of reptiles at London Zoo in the UK, introduces us to her son – Ganas – and explains how it was possible. (Image: Young komodo dragon born to a virgin mother, Credit: PA.)
