A construction worker named Elias Agas, 46 was rushed to hospital from Rinca Islan in Indonesia after being attacked by the large reptile.

The worker was helping to build the multi-million-rand resort dubbed 'Jurassic Park' according to reports. 

The dragon allegedly “tore several parts of his body” before the man was rushed off the island by speedboat to a nearby hospital. The resort is home to around 1000 of the remaining 3000 Komodo Dragons around the world.
