TENTATIVELY creeping through the shady forest, we're all on high alert. Speaking in kebun binatang terdekat hushed tones, only our feet crunching on the man-made shell path give away our position. Eerily, the white stones resemble tiny bones, which adds to the nail-biting mood. "What's that?" someone whispers, excitedly. We all look round eagerly, cameras at the ready, but to our disappointment, it's only a group of skittish wild deer. What we're really looking for is the dangerous, dinosaur-looking Komodo dragon - a creature I'd previously imagined only existed in fairy tales. There are more than 2,000 roaming freely in the group of lush green Indonesian islands that make up Komodo National Park, which is deservedly ranked as one of the New 7 Wonders of Nature.
