Part 3: Thunder Dragons Throwbacks to the dinosaur age, monitor lizards (often referred to as thunder dragons) play a crucial role in the food chain of Sri Lanka's lagoons and forests - if they make it through the first year. A mother's role ends with the laying of eggs and hatchlings are left to fend for themselves, find food and keep to the relative safety of the trees.
